What is the Potential of Photography?
1. A photograph to me can become much more than just an "image", to me, it a capturing of a moment in time that you will never relive again. They can be filled with memories and looking back on a photo can make those memories come back to life. Another way to look at a photo is the personality of an image and the way it was taken, helps to express what the picture is about.
2. Size and scale can play a huge role in the power of a photograph yet even the smallest picture is able to have a lot of power. In most cases how ever a bigger image will tend to over whelm the viewer and is easier to draw them into the picture, but if the picture is of very small size but has a lot of detail in it, it can be just as effective.
3. An attractive background is more appealing to the viewer rather than a boring one. Depending on different situations though, More details in the background could be bad because it will distract the viewer from the subject where as a more calm background will help to see the object more. The background can also give more personality to the picture plus the subject. The location will be the background in most cases but not always, the object and and location can tie together the meaning of the picture.
4. To make my pictures stronger using JR's picture I can now see how he makes things "less literal" in a sense that he makes them his own and really challenges the viewer to understand what is going on in the photos he's taken. I will also try to make my objects in my photos more obvious. My photos will be more impactful if I can work harder to gain these qualities in my pictures and challenge the viewers to see what I see, from being two different people.

Photographer Report (Vincent LaForet)
1. Vincent Laforet
2. 1975-20..
3. Vincent began his career when he was just 15 years old. He started out as a photojournalist and had internships with newspapers. By the time he was 25, he had become the youngest staff photographer for the New York Times. He has publicized to move to commercial photography and motion work. He is now married to his wife, Amber, and has a son Noah, and a daughter, Eliana
4. Vincent is a famous photographer for a variety of subjects but what I see most is people and having them in a "tilt shift" aspect. Many of his pictures appear to be "miniature" or "fake". He mentions on his blog..."I have a terrible weakness for gadgets, love to meet interesting people every day, refuse to make an image I’ve seen before – basically I love to try new things". He really shows each personality of each of the people he takes a picture of. Also on his website he photo shot a commercial add for famous footwear. He states that "He loves toys" such as the cameras and all that they allow him to do in photo shooting.
5. I really enjoy his pictures that he shows and the way that I can relate to the "tilt shift" method because I just recently used that for a project. Also I love the "moving camera" too because video is often just as interesting as a simple photograph. My opinion of his work is miraculous. He truly has an eye for the camera. He makes his pictures so fascinating by the different effects he uses in each photo. It is great because he really knows how to pull in the viewer into each and every one of his pictures.
