Style sheet

I have decided to choose these fonts, colours and similar images because I want to have all these elements within my work. I want include the colour green in a lot of my photos because nature is surrounded by green. In the top right corner you can see a landscape and a portrait photo of tree bark. As you can see the images look completely different and also have different moods to the images, and that’s what I want to capture. The font I want to use will be in the corner of my images or on the back of them so that the audience knows that it’s my official work and not stolen. I have chosen two different types of fonts so that I can see how the different fonts look against each other.

Layout 1This layout gives you a little idea on how I want my online portfolio to be like. As you can I have used the fonts from my style sheet in order to see if the fonts work with my styled photography. These images are exactly what I wish to capture for my nature portfolio. As you can see I have found three different images ti see how the contrast next to each other. The first image is a landscape shot of a close to a vibrant flower, focus used on the main subject only. The second image is also a landscape image but of trees. The second image shows a cut off image of only some of the trees with focus on the detail of the bark and was photographed in a forest. The third image is landscape but instead of the image being focused on something its all the same. In the back ground of the image you can see mountains which gives the photo more of an edge because it’s not just of one aspect of nature.

Layout 2This layout gives you another example on how I want to produce my final product. As you can see I have a mixture of portrait and landscape shots. I have used the colour scheme idea of including a lot of green in my product and also using the different fonts I chose in order to see how they look with the type of photography I want to capture. I think that the font works well with the theme because of the almost child like writing and makes the whole layout look more happy and chilled. I overall want my product to have a happy, fun, vibrant and real. I think that by aiming to do all of these things will enable me to have high quality photos and give my product of professional look.
