Analysis:

About the Photographer (Clarence Hudson White)

  • Time Period: 1871-1925
  • Location:  Newark, Ohio, West Carlisle
  • Object/Subject: Nature and People
  • What makes photographer unique:  He learned to take photograph skills by himself  and finished his career. In U.S. history, he played a leading role in portrait photography, also during and after the powerful period of the Photo-Secession which was an 20th-century movement that promoted photography as a fine art in general. He also teaching at established institutions and his own school.
My View
  • Why did you choose the photographer?  
Ans: 
          His photographs always featured focus softly effects, reflected a quiet environment, and showed personal mood.  In US history, After the Photo-Secession fell down in 1910, White carried pictorialism for the next ten years.  Except his photo, he also did a lot of constitutions for country. That's why his photos and him attracted my attention.
  • How did the photographer inspired you? 
Ans: 
          He told me a truth that even if you do not understand anything, it doesn't matter, as long as we work hard then we can create a great career certainly. Like Clarence Hudson White, He was self-taught throughout career, later he established institutions and his own school. I will embrace this belief to keep going forward.
  • How did this change while working on the project?
Ans:   
          After knew Clarence's photograph styles, I  paid more attention on people's mood who was taken pictures. I took pictures in a dark background and edit my pictures to whit and black, make the brightness lower then change last three pictures color---Brown.
