Portrait Assignment

I really had fun with this project - the first pics I took didn't turn out good at all, and I scrapped probably the first twenty to thirty. But I got a lot better as I went (at least, I think I did), and had fun. I really wanted to capture pictures that looked more candid than posed, so I tried not to give them too many instructions. The only downside to that was that some pics that would've been great were too blurry because they were moving. It was a great learning experience. I took about 140 pictures total, and around 50 of them were pretty good.
Here are my favorites of the day:
