Photoshoot 2 Plan

For my second photoshoot, I want to recreate images of Lillie Langtry with the natural and agricultural scenery.

To recreate images similar to this, I am using the same costume from my first photoshoot to give the images an antique aesthetic and to give the impression that the image was taken during the same era as Langtry in a fashion sense. I am also going to take the images outside rather than the studio to achieve the same cascading, natural lighting. I want the setting to feature agriculture such as trees and flowers to reiterate the ‘feminine’ ambience of the photo above.

I will try to achieve the strong depth of field that is displayed in the photographs of Langtry by using both a short and long lens.
