Shoot-Candid Portrait

The candid image is the opposite of the classic photograph that is precise and perfectly set up. Candid photographs are unplanned, spontaneous and show immediacy. Henri-Cartier Bresson could be called the King of the candid photograph and is known for capturing the "Decisive Moment", of everyday life. Arthur Fellig, known as Weegee, captured New York City street life and is known for his candid, gritty images.
For this assignment, you are to photograph one person, not to tell the story of their life, or who they are, but to capture the moment they are living in. This will be a challenge if you are trying to set up the image too much, so be prepared! Carry your camera with you and be ready for that spontanous moment. Remember to consider all the other things we have talked about, such as background, lighting, shutter/aperture and composition.
Keep up the good work, you are all becoming great photographers!
Image due: beginning of class, shoot at least 24 images, you will then narrow down your choices for us to see during class to 5! You will then have time to post them during class.
