Here are the two final outcomes from my blonde photo shoots. As previously stated I do not think that I will be using the “Mean Girls” Regina George inspired image on the left due to the stereotype being heavily reliant on the viewer having seen the film. I also feel that the stereotype doesn’t really make sense out of context but I wanted to conduct the shoot to show that I had this outfit in my wardrobe and I have in the past conformed to this stereotype in one form or another. I am however, very happy with the composition and characterization of the image and still feel that it is a well executed photograph.

The image on the right depicts a more obvious stereotype of the “dumb blonde”, as seen in my planning post I took inspiration from public figures such as Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Reese Witherspoon’s depiction of Elle Woods from the motion picture “Legally Blonde” and the blonde pop culture icon, Barbie. I selected the image above on the right because I feel that it captured a perfect combination of confidence and absentmindedness. The pose connotes glamour and confidence but the vacant expression reinforced the stereotype of blondes being airheads. I plan to combine this strong image with another contrasting stereotype of mine.
