In this photograph I chose to use back lighting to cause the subject to be darker than the light backdrop. It helped make harsher shadows and highlights. Where the hula hoop touches my arms it appears to be the same color causing myself and the hoop to look connected. In this image the lines in the sheet that I used as a backdrop go in toward the subject and the hula hoop circles the subject, causing me to be the main focus of the photo.
In this photo I wanted to portray the word secret. I had Johnny (the kid in front) block Erik's face to keep him hidden or "secret." Their dark hair and shirt contrast with the white wall. To make the scene more dramatic I would have made them darker to make it seem that there's a dark secret that they're telling each other but I wanted to make the mood light to show them telling secrets and more having fun than being serious. The lines in this photograph are important. There are a lot of diagonal lines-the door, arm rest, and the lines that the boy's arms create-that cause the photo to appear to have more motion to make it look like an action shot rather than being posed.
