These are all examples of portraits taken on location. I noticed that a lot of the ones I found had been edited black and white, in order to show the highlights, shadows and tones in the face. Black and white also allows texture to be emphasised as the different tones are visible, for example in the image of the young girl on the bench we can see the wood would be smooth but the worn away edges have a more rough texture. Something I like about location portraiture is that the location can help to make sense of the image or help to create a certain feel. For example, in the multiple image the mans urban dress sense works together with the brick wall to create an overall urban feeling.
