Photo shoot 1 – Planning

For my first photo shoot I will photograph three people wearing multiple sets of clothes. However, they will all be wearing the same outfits; which will be a variation of bright, high-end clothing, and more monotone worn-out clothing. I will also encorporate elements of tableaux in this photo shoot by telling the models to have positive facial expressions and body language whilst wearing bright clothing, and the opposite whilst wearing the darker clothing. I will also edit some of the portraits together into a composite image. More specifically I will combine the portraits of each of the models wearing the same outfit, to create a sort of group photo of them all dressed identically.

Although composite portraiture is normally used in large group portraits, I will use it in my much smaller group of models as I only have one of each outfit, so having everyone wear it simultaneously is impossible.

This is an example of the technique I am aiming to use; except my photos will feature multiple people in each shot instead of just one person.

One thought on “Photo shoot 1 – Planning”

  1. Krystian : by studying the function of clothing / uniforms / fashion you should be able to draw parallels between costumes of occupation and costumes of liberation….and explore hierarchies in society

    Design and produce a range of photoshoots and outomes that respond to this as a concept, and aim to show social status, class, wealth and power throughout.

    You could employ tableaux approaches and re-stage Baroque paintings, by Rembrandt and Velasquez…also look at David La Chapelle

    eg german officer vs gang leader
