This is my little brother Bennett and he is important in my life because he does a lot of things with me like play soccer or basketball and does other little things like getting my phone charger for me that make me really appreciate him.

Bennett is an outgoing, goofy, and all around happy kid which explains all of the weird faces and his constant smile. He is also a sports junky/ Daredevil and is constantly outside with a soccer ball or basketball or riding his bike so i thought it would be a good idea for him to do some tricks outside with the soccer ball and to climb the tree. Thats also why i took a lot of pictures of him outside not only for the lighting but also because thats where he likes to be most. And even though he is quiet outgoing he still has his little shy and independent side which is shown in the first picture where he is kind of hiding behind the fence posts and in the fourth picture with him on his phone.

This unit has effected my photography a lot and has shown me the importance of good lighting and how an improvement in lighting can make a huge improvement of the photo. It makes me want to take the time to find good lighting before taking a photo instead of just pointing and shooting.
