I decided to add this photoshoot as I would like to add objects around my photos that have a connection to the individuals in each image. I feel that this will add for to the photobook and helps to enhance the narrative of my book creating in-depth stories for each person.

Contact Sheets

Below are some contact sheets which display ornaments which I felt have a connect to some of the people I will be showing throughout my photobook. I have used different colours to pick out the best photographs out of my collection, these are the most clear and defined so it will be easier for me to edit them onto a different background in photoshop.

Photoshop Editing

I will be transferring the still life images onto a black background in photoshop as this will be the colour of the paper in my photobook. I think that this is the easiest way to create the desired look that I am going for. For this I will be using the paint bucket tool in Lightroom to fully colour the background, I will then use the object selection tool to outline the ornament to transfer it onto the background.

Evaluation

I wanted to include different objects which portrayed part of the subjects personality throughout the book, I had taken photos of different ornaments which I thought would help convey a more throughout narrative. In the end I did not end up including this idea into my photobook as I felt that it would make the pages look to busy and untidy. I also had changed the background colour of my pages to white as I felt it fit with more of my images that were being used.
