Photographic Session (1st Shoot)



I like how this image is only facial, however this may prove hard to find a colour to write over on the front page.

These images look fairly effective as the model is looking straight at the camera,  and the lighting objects in the background also add to the photograph as it makes it intentionally obvious that it is a studio shot. I noticed that photographers sometimes use background objects like this in Vogue.

This isnt really a picture I would like to show on the front cover or in the magazine at all as it isnt a strong photograph and the model has too much of a natural look for the genre I am focusing on.

I used a coat to cover the model in this photo, basically to create a unique photo rather than just a typical pose.

These photographs are different however, I wouldn't want to use either of these pictures in my magazine as I think they show too much for a music magazine also the poses arn't that strong.



On the 1st image, I told the model to turn around and flip her hair as I took the photo. This looked quite effective however, I dont think I want to use it in the magazine because both of the images are too dark.





The models hair looks good here however the background is too dark.

This image is far too dark.

All of the above images are fairly strong however they are far too dark to use or edit on photoshop.

This is a strong pose and I think that the use of costume illustrates r'n'b music quite well and looks unique. Also the ring is very visible. This image would be more effective with the green background edited out.

I like how the model is turned on this image and looking directly at the camera.

  

I like the use of light in this image, but the models pose arnt as good as some of the other images.

I like this image because the coat is draped across the models back so again it looks different and unique.

I chose to shoot the photographs in the studio to gain a quality of lighting, I explored a range of angles so I had a choice of photographs and poses to pick from. I also liked the colour of the green screen in the background against the model I thought it helped to make her stand out and added to the effectiveness of my chosen genre. However, after taking the photographs it proved hard to add lettering and develop/edit the photographs on photoshop. The green didnt allow me to cut out the model from the background easily.
This is when I decided to take a second shoot.
