Genres of Photography By Fiona Fennie and Isabella Ruiz Portrait Photography This photo is of an aged man in front of an old house. He is wearing a plaid blazer and a hat. His face is old and weathered, This photo falls under portrait photography because its a photo of a person that tells a story about him or her. We have always appreciated black and white photography Documentary Photography This photo is of firefighters running through the mist of the fire hoses while a fire was burning a building. This photo is a documentary photo because it recorded an event. This image is chaotic and it brings your eye to each of the elements of the photo. Landscape Photography This photo is of a placid lake as the sun is rising. This photo is an example of landscape photography because it explores the environment and our natural habitat. This photo brings about a certain feeling of calmness. The lake is peaceful and full of life. Street Photography This photo is of a woman taking a stroll in an urban setting. The walls are decorated with graffiti and various street art. This photo is an example of street photography because the woman is not aware her photo is being taken. We were intrigued by this photo because the way the alley isn't lit but the background is, gives a feeling of seclusion and oneness. Surreal Photography This photo is of a woman laying on the forest floor in a mint green gown. She looks like she is resting peacefully. This is a surreal photography because it depicts a dreamlike scene. She looks extremely small and her dress looks like smoke or fog. This photo drew us in because the misty dress looks like its billowing along the forest floor. This photo makes you do a double- take. Commercial Photography This photo is of a woman in a forest during the fall. She is accompanied by a bright orange VW Bug. This is an example of commercial photography because the main focus of the photograph is the car. Our eyes are drawn to it. We chose this photo because of the colors and the balance of the photo. The woman is wearing muted colors which draws our eye to the car. Works Cited
