Shoot 4: Photography studio detail shot

For my forth shoot relating to each individual subject I decided to do more detailed shots of each dancer in the studio using an infinity background which help make the main focus of the view on each subject. For this study I used my Macro lens which means I could specifically focus on their whole face which would and could leads to a better understanding and representation of each of their emotions relation to dance and how it makes the feels. For this shoot I asked each subject to take a seat in the studio and asked them different questions relating to the type of dancers they do, why they dance, how it makes them feel and many others. Furthermore, after taking a few head shot of each individual I captured specific parts of their face for example, their eyes, eyelashes, hands feet, lips; this was basically a representation of the deeper meaning that different parts of their bodies are sued in dance, and that each component can help tell their own story when they are dancing. For a lot of these images I kept it to the original as I thought the raw emotions made the overall emotions trying to be reflected more realistic. After each shoot I opened the photos on Adobe Lightroom and allowed me to focus on the best out comes of the images.

After deciding on final images that I wanted to use for my photo book and final pieces I edited a few that I thought would benefit the overall outcome.
