Mass Production Portraits

For this mass production portrait assignment, I had to come up with a style and idea for a portrait that I would want to recreate with 100 people. I chose to combine two things that don't normally go together which was red solo cups and formal portraits. I would set people in front of a black background with very formal lighting and give them the red solo cup and from there it was up to the subject to create their actions. My portraits spanded from akward smiles to outrageous poses. The only thing that I really struggled with in this assignment was capturing 100 portraits. I only managed to shoot 44 portraits. All in all this assignment was fun and pushed me to think outside the box by making me create my own style to shoot the portraits in.
