Picturessss

So we did the shoot on Friday the 25th. It went really well I think, and I've spent most of the weekend editing photos so hopefully I've got some good ones :)
Here they areeee

We went for the circus / fairground, doll / mime, good / bad kind of scenario. I tried to put in a stripey background to give it more of a circus-y feel, but it didnt end up looking too good so I didnt include any of them. The model just ended up looking quite flat against the background and I couldnt get it looking realistic. I like the balloons and streamers in the first few photos cause they kind of get across the theme of the fairground / circus. And I think the clothes, make up and poses in the last few because they help to get across the mime-ish feeling that we wanted in the photographs.

Circus / Fairground theme

So, we have decided on a circus / fairground themed  set of images. I think this could be really cool if we get it looking right!

These are just some photos that I found when researching this theme. I like the top image because it shows the fairground theme really well I think. I especially like how the props (balloons) and background helped to show where the photograph was shot.

The lower photograph is some make-up which I think looks really cool. Could have like, a doll / mime effect on the image. It's pretty cool :)



More fashion photographs..

Check these out! I really like the top two photos because they're so strange looking and different. I think my favourite is the mermaids one because it looks really surreal and actually like it was taken from underwater, in a scene like this, when really it is obviously constructed.
I also like the top right image because it is also very strange looking. You wouldnt normally see a man with a lion's head in many other images. I also like how the models have been made to look like royalty in this image, maybe to show that lions are supposed to be the kings. I think the clothing and the background helps to show this.
