Still Life Photography
By: Araceli Rosas
Definition
• Still Life Photography is anything that doesn’t make any sudden movement.
• For example: Flowers, cans, pots, etc.
History
• In the 1800's the Romans and Greek grouped small tiles to make up a picture. They used to call them Mosaics. These pictures are made up of thousands of small colored tiles like today's pixel images.
Some Steps
• There is no right way to take a picture but for some people they:
1. Set up the piece.2. Put a backdrop (if necessary).3. Try to get a good angle4. Upload the pictures, and try to make new
angles.
Techniques
• Try different angles all the time• Use a backdrop to make the object have some
color.• Have good lighting. (daylight or flash)
• People could also be used as Still Life Photography if they don’t do any sudden movement.
• The reason why I wanted to become an expert on Still Life Photography was because I love the way you could capture a moment. And also because you really don’t have to leave your home to take pictures.
