Environmental Portrait

"Grandma Winnie"
I took this picture of my grandma without her knowing. She was finishing a conversation with my mom as we were leaving her house, and I took that opportunity to snap a candid of her. I really like this picture because my grandma is smiling. She rarely smiles in pictures because she is self-conscious of the tiny, unnoticeable gap between her front teeth. This image is an example of shape and form because it was not taken straight on, so my grandma takes up a specific portion of the photo that creates a unique outline against the background of her house. It also portrays the principle of emphasis because it is focused on my grandma as the one subject of the photo.
