Shoot Evaluation: i think that altogether the shoot was successful. There were some outcomes which i really liked and captured the story that i wanted to tell. The bold colours of the Blue which symbolizes St Marys has a powerful message and i like the constant story which now runs throughout the images because they all contain the same blue shade in terms of the background and then linking the subject to the environment is the same shade of blue in her outfit as she is purposely wearing blue jeans to match this. i also thing that strong portraits have been captured. Another message i have tried to capture in these images is the differences between the person who used to go to this school when we were younger to the mature adult that the subject is now. This is highlighted in the stance and posture and sophisticated facial expressions in the images.
