Photoshoot Plan:
Concept: The self portrait of Gwen John shows her isolation and struggle for recognition in a career dominated by men.
Location: I will position my model near a window with a clear background
Lighting: Natural Lighting from the side to create the similar soft effect and light shadow on one half of the face.
Camera Settings: Just clear focus on the subject
Props: I chose my model as I thought they looked similar to Gwen John. They will wear a shirt, tie and necklace backwards and ring earings. They will hold a grey cardigan over their arm.
This image is the inspiration behind my images. It is titled ‘Self-Portrait’ By Gwen John.
I decided not to use any of the images that had too many shadows in them.
