Chiaroscuro Studio Final Photos

This image is of Chloe and was taken in the studio quite recent in the style of Chiaroscuro byme in the style of Robert Moran for my photography coursework. A man who uses shadows and light to highlight what he wants the viewers to focus on for example in one of his photographs he used a women’s silhouette and shined light on her curves making that the viewers focal point. In my photo rather than focusing on her silhouette I made the viewer’s focal point her face and also her shirt which I think is just as empowering as the silhouette of the women Robert Moran photographed as she is embracing her body shape and curves I however used the shirt because of WonderWomen as she is one of the few female superheroes empowering to females in the DC comics. The shirt should also be a place where the viewer’s eyes draw into as it has bold colour like, blue, red and yellow. The soft shadows conceals a part of her face and clothes and the light illuminates her best features. For this photograph I used one point artificial lighting to create a chiaroscuroeffect with a backdrop. I positioned the camera right in front of Chloe and just had her turn a small portion of her body. One thing I did differently to Robert Moran was that I used more light than shadow. However when I went to edit the photo and changed the brightness and contrast.
