Day Dreams
In a formal portrait setting the photographer is in charge of the situation. They can control the environment, the lighting, the background, the props and they have to control their subject. It is essential to direct and relate to the person, adult or child, which is being photographed so that the results the photographer envisions are achieved.
This photographer had complete control of the situation surrounding the creation of this image. You will note how important the props are in telling the story of this little girl. The layering of the flowers, wagon and teddy bear all contribute to telling us about a moment in a child’s life, perhaps a little idyllic but a wonderful fairy tale story.
I like the addition of the star bursts in post processing on the computer. They add to the dream like quality of the composition. The way the color green is used throughout the illustration acts as a unifying element. This photographer has a wonderful imagination.
