PHOTOSHOOT #1

Focusing on portraiture

In December I started by walking through natural landscapes while it was sunny: focusing on ‘golden hour’ light, portraiture and natural landscapes. This did prove difficult in the nature of portraiture as I was photographing myself without a tripod so I actually hung my camera on a tree branch- this created some blurry, unsuccessful images so I decided to just concentrate on abstract portraiture.

PHOTOSHOOT #2

Focusing on colour- experimenting with night photography

For particularly colourful images I went through my camera roll on my phone and found images from my holiday in Spain during summer- through doing this I found some images which are of patterned rugs and tapestries etc which were in museums in Spain and Glasgow. I would like to use these as textural images which colour to pages which would otherwise be blank. I also experimented with night photography however I struggled to take pictures of anything moving as I couldn’t work out the correct shutter speed and ISO- I didn’t want to use flash and this was proving difficult.

PHOTOSHOOT #3

Focusing on product-style images

I wanted to take pictures of my own belongings such as pressed flowers, leaves, lighters and bottles to cut out on photoshop and put in the photobook layered on top of images or beside them- at home I also took pictures from my family album of my childhood and family.

PHOTOSHOOT #4

No aim

I took pictures documenting my room and my day out with friends, this is the photoshoot I took the least amount of photos on as I would forget I was meant to be taking images- I did not really have an aim with this photoshoot I just wanted to capture what I had an eye for.
