Ethics in Fashion Photography

1. List the changes that were made to the model's face in the computer.
Her eyes were made  eyes bigger and her neck longer.

2. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like this in a photo? Why or why not?
No, because 1, thats kind of telling the model she isnt good enough....& 2, it gives little girl the wrong idea of what beuty really is.

3. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation?
Yeah when you try to do a before-after and completely lie and change the picture completely.


4. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?
Like say she has a fly-away hair, its not so bad to change that and make it better.
When you completely change the persons apperance to suit your definition of beauty.

5. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.
Fashion photography is when your trying to start a trend or when your trying to sell something. Photojornalism is like pictures of  real life.

6. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality?
Photojournalism are pictures of reality, and the world... Fashion photography is somebodys opinion of reality.
