This document discusses different types of photography including portrait, landscape, nature, fine art, fashion, advertising, and documentary photography. For each type, an example image is provided along with a brief comment on why it exemplifies that genre. The document also provides examples from the photographer and discusses how each genre has changed over the last 100 years mainly due to advances in technology.

2. Portrait
Portrait photography is photography which mainly
focuses on a person or group of peoples faces but
may however include a background.
Jochen Dreess
I think this is a good example of portrait
photography because it shows the woman’s face
clearly and also the effect of black and white gives
the photo a lot of emotion and personality.

3. Portrait
My example
With this picture I was trying to achieve getting
his full face in the picture but having him looking
away from the camera as it looks more natural.
Portrait photography has changed over the years
main by the style of the picture as older portraits
would mainly be looking straight towards the
camera but now a days they tend to have the
model looking else where from the camera.

4. Landscape
Landscape photography mainly shows the spaces of
the world. Most of the time they will be natural and
nature photos but sometimes can include a man
made feature.
Bart Heirweg
I think this is a good example of landscape
photography because of the angle the shot was
taken and how it shows the mountains and sunset
in the background and also capturing the hills in the
foreground of the photo.

5. Landscape
My example
With this picture I was trying the capture the
trees and lampposts in the background and get
the cars closer to the camera and use the
leading lines in the middle of the picture to
make people focus on the trees down the
middle of the photo.
Landscape photography has changed in the
last 100 years by mainly the technology
available to us now compared to then where
most people would have pained landscapes
rather then take photos.

6. Nature
Nature photography is photos that capture the wild
life, things like animals, plants and even landscapes.
Thomas Mangelsen
I think this is a good example of nature photography
because it is taken at the specific moment of where
the picture is at its best.

7. Nature
With this photo I was trying to capture the trees at the
front of the shot with the sky acting as negative
space in the top corner to help the trees stand out in
the picture.
Nature photography has changed over the last 100
years by the technology mainly. People are able to
zoom into places from further away to make there
pictures look more appealing and professional.
My example

8. Fine art
Fine art photography is photography created in accordance with the vision of
the artist as photographer.
Matej Michalik
I think this is a good example of Fine art
because the picture is almost telling a story
like artists do in their work.

9. Fine art
Over the past 100 years fine art has changed primarily because of
technology and the way photographers take their pictures to
capture the perfect image. A lot of the photos are now changed to
black and white to make the pictures look professional and eye
catching to people and also to make the photo more meaningful.

10. Fashion
Fashion photography is a genre of photography devoted to displaying clothing
and other fashion items. Fashion photography is most often conducted for
advertisements or fashion magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, or Elle. Over
time, fashion photography has developed its own aesthetic in which the clothes
and fashions are enhanced by the presence of exotic locations or accessories.
Solvay Sundsbo
I think this is a good example of fashion photography because
it is clearly showing what is offered to the audience and the
addition of the background makes the picture look a lot more
professional and eye-catching to us.

11. Fashion
My example
With this photo I was using the clothing side of
fashion. You can clearly see what the clothing
looks like so that would make it a lot more easier
to sell in the industry an this is the type of shot a
fashion photographer for something like a
magazine would use.
Over the last 100 years fashion photography has
changed mainly because of technology where
people can use programs like photo shop to
enhance the picture and make the model or the
clothing look different.

12. Advertising
Advertising photography is used to help promote a
product by showing either the product itself or
showing how it could work. Sometimes models are
included to help sell.
Garrey Dawson
I think this is a good example of advertising
photography because it is clearly helping sell the
drink and showing what the product actually is

13. Advertising
My example
With this photo I was using a poser with is
advertising and promoting a new product
around college. The photo shows clearly what
the poster is selling you and the inclusion of the
picture makes it eye catching and stand out.
Over the last 100 years advertising
photography has changed mainly because of
technology as people can now edit what they
are advertising to make the product look
amazing and something that all people want to
get.

14. Documentary
Documentary photography usually refers to a popular form of photography used
to chronicle both significant and historical events and everyday life. It is typically
covered in professional photojournalism, or real life reportage, but it may also be
an amateur, artistic, or academic pursuit.
