Ethics in fashion photography

1. List the changes that were made to the model's face in the computer. (Look carefully)
The changes that were made were that they made her face clearer, enlarged her hair from the bottom, made her eyes and also her eyebrows wider, made her neck larger, and her lips , they changed her tone of her face.

2. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like this in a photo? Why or why not?
I think its not acceptable to change someones eyes, lips, or the neck or her face. but basic stuff like her hair, makeup i think it is acceptable to change.


3. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation?
It would be wrong in doing this manipulation.


4. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?
The changes that are okay to change are like the hair the makeup, the toner of her face not to make that pail. Those are the changes that I think are okay to change. And the ones that are not are like the eyes, lips, or other parts of her face.

5. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.
The difference between fashion photography and photojournalism is that in fashion photography take the pictures of the person but when done they change some little details in the computer. In photojournalism i think its just taking the pictures the way they are and doing any changes to the photo.

6. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality, and how does this affect the ethical practice of each?
The relationship that each type of photography have to reality is that either one time they either have to change something of the photo. How is changes the ethical is that it might always turn out good but also bad
