29. Kinds of Shot and Composition
• 1. Rule of thirds. The Rule of
Thirds places the main subject off
center and away from the center
of the frame. The rule envisions
two horizontal and two vertical
lines trisecting an image with four
intersecting points.

31. • 2. Close – up Shots/
Facial Shots usually
have the subject's
shoulders and head or
less. They are basically
framed around the face.
These are the best to
capture expressions and
glamour shots.

33. 3. Medium Shots/ Upper Body
Shots are a little less personal than
close-ups. These are easier to get
satisfactory results from mainly
because your subject is probably
more relaxed plus you can include a
little of the background. These are
probably the most commonly used
for single subjects and multiple
subjects.

36. 4. Framing is the tactic of
using natural surroundings
to add more meaning to
your subject. It could be
anything such as bushes,
trees, a window, or even a
doorway like in the picture
at the top of this page.

39. 5. Contrast has
dramatic lighting. A
strong contrast adds
interest to a photo.

41. • 6. Reflections.
Capturing a
reflection adds an
interesting,
sometimes abstract,
look to a photo.
