To be quite honest, I did not understand the photography scene in its true from until I came to college here in Chico. The amount of aspiring photographers and people who just take pictures as a hobby is very large, and the creativity this produces rubs off on many aspects in everyday life. The one that caught my eye was the fashion ideas that come from these people who take pictures and how they want them to come out. I thought this would be a perfect point of discussion for this blog as it relates to the overall topic of my blog being college fashion. So how does someones outfit change the overall tone and meaning to a picture. Well there are a few things that can explain this. For one, if someone is using a camera with a high contrast and brightness they are going to want their subject to have darker clothes on and vice versa. Another key aspect is the setting of the photo shoot and what landscape is captured along with the subject. If a photographer wants to take some pictures in a nature-filled area, they might want you to express some freedom with loose clothes and colors to match the scenery. Pictures that are taken at night have a darker tone to them, so a photographer can edit them after taking them to enhance the quality. There are some creative designers and models who wear clothes to display their setting. Fashion shows have backgrounds and props while these models wear clothes to match this. This is why you probably see countless photographers at catwalk model shows because the planning of the venue and wardrobe behind it is what photographers dream for. I personally love for my friends who have expensive cameras and love to shoot to capture some unique flicks of me. This is a way I can display my fashion sense to the world.
