Production- Natural Photography

    This week I focused on taking natural photographs that could be used as backgrounds and supporting images in my mindfulness magazine. I went to Lowe’s and photographed different flowers because I wanted to include more natural elements in my magazine instead of only indoor setups. I thought flowers would work well because they connect to themes of calmness and mindfulness and help make the magazine feel more peaceful and organic.

Variety of Flowers that I Photographed-

    I used my iPhone camera so I could move around easily and take photos from different distances and angles. For some photos I moved closer to focus on the details of the petals, and for others I stepped back so the flowers filled the frame in a more natural way. I tried to keep the compositions simple and avoided including too many distracting objects in the background.

Closer to detail Photos-

    While taking the photos, I paid attention to lighting and tried to shoot in areas where the light looked softer and more even. I wanted the colors to look natural and not too harsh so the images would match the calm style I planned earlier.

    These photos will likely be used as background images or supporting visuals rather than main feature images. Taking these pictures helped me move toward a more natural approach for the magazine while still staying consistent with my original plan.
