Figure out how to get their face properly lit, be conscious of the background, and take lots of pictures. You should have at least 4 different backdrops and should take at least 75 pictures. This is an experimental and learning assignment, try applying different lighting types, pay attention to what looks good coming out of the camera. At the end of this assignment you will pick the best 3 pictures edit them and turn them in. You will print an 8 x 10 of the one you like best. 

You will turn in 3 portraits for this assignment, edited and cleaned up on photo shop.  1 portrait of a subject 15-18 years old, 1 portrait of a subject 35-45 years old.  and 1 portrait of a subject ~55+.   Each portrait will have with it;
