Lise Sarfati

Lise takes portraits of people in minimal outdoor settings. The person in the photo usually is not looking at the camera. They are looking out somewhere past the viewer and completely turned around backwards. An air of mystery is added because of the averted eyes. The viewer becomes curious about what they are looking at beyond the photo field. From the critiques in class it is clear that I need to find other locations for my model other than the cramped room. I would like to perfect the back turned photo near the window and then get outside to surround her with nature like trees or a field to add contrast to the fluffy outfit. The bed, wall, and lounge were all soft and didn't add much contrast. Being outside will add natural light which always makes my photos look nicer than working with incandescent lighting and light coming in from awkwardly cropped windows.
