1.In this unit we have learned that the primary focus of portraits in the individual's face or expression. In this talk, Dass says that the primary focus of her portraits is what? Based on this, do you believe that her photos are considered portraits?

Dass focus’s on the skin tomes of the individuals rather than the expression that they are making.  That to me is and is not a portrait, because it is a portrait in the way that Dass takes the picture of the individuals face, but to her it does not matter what face or anything else about the individual is making, she wants to create a exceptional picture bringing out the individuals skin tone.  

2.In this unit you have studied the ways in which portrait photography allows you to see a person's true personality and interests on film. In relation to this idea, what does Dass say that these portraits help us rethink?

Dass says that these portraits help us rethink what and how we label others based on their skin color.  

3.This unit of study has imparted very specific tips and instruction for creating excellent portraits. What are some of the specific guidelines you have learned about and do you think that Dass adhered to these during her photography sessions?

Dass incorporated and or highlighted almost every one of the guidelines in every single portrait that she took.  

4.We have learned about how to take different portraits such as children, groups, and taking formal photographs. Dass discusses taking portraits of refugees and people living in shelters. Can you think of a topic for an additional lesson that might be beneficial for this portrait course? Why?

I don’t think that there is anything more to be learned from the lesson, what we learn from here-on-out should be hands on learning.  If, somewhere down the road, we come across another topic that we think should be learned by students, I would say yes, but for now the answer is no.  

1.Discuss why Noroc believes her photography comes across in such an honest manner.

Noroc believes that her photography is so honest is because her portraits and other pictures are of women, nature, and other natural objects.  Noroc also believes that her photos are honest because they are not, in her words, “Over sexualized” such as the one commonly found in the media today.  

2.In what ways is Noroc’s photography empowering to women?

Noroc conveys through her photos that every woman is beautiful, and she is beautiful in her own way.  She also conveys that nobody is ugly, too fat, not the right shape etc. and that everyone, especially every woman is beautiful.  

3.Which of the photographs featured in this article is your favorite? Why?

My favorite picture is The Atlas of Beauty photo.  I like this picture because of the calmness of the picture with the serene water in contrast to the colors on the woman’s shawl, and then the woman is holding the shell with the orange in it, to me it makes for a fantastic picture.  

This is what I got for my answers, and for the future if you want go to coursehero .com.  That is where I go when I need help.  Cheers!
