Photoshoot #3 + #4 outcomes

Photoshoot #3 and #4 were considerably smaller photoshoots than the other photoshoots, with only about 30 images being taken overall.

PHOTOSHOOT #3

The images which served as inspiration for this shoot

For my third photoshoot I was taking pictures in colourful (monotone) settings- in this instance my images were taken in a room with LED coloured lighting.

My images in this shoot were slightly dark- if turned up the exposure I expect the images would become very grainy. Personally I do not like the images I obtained from this shoot mainly because I do not like LED lighting in photographs, especially in the context of trying to take cinematic images as I struggled to get the correct camera settings to adjust to the lighting.

MY BEST IMAGES FROM THIS SHOOT

The image above is one of my best images due to composition, I don’t really like the image itself but the natural framing of the two backs to the camera and the subject in the middle is a good account of cinematic display in photography, with the main subject making direct eye contact with the camera in an almost “breaking the third wall” style.

This image is one which reminds me of Claudia Andujar’s work based off the emotion shown on the main subject’s face and the fact the image looks like a snapshot during a conversation where the subject is emotive.

PHOTOSHOOT #4

The images which served as inspiration for this shoot

For this photoshoot I was just out with my friends, a lot of the pictures I got ended up being my friends just posing for pictures (with flash- so unusable for what I wanted to accomplish).

However at one point we had a small photoshoot in a phone box which turned out quite successful with 6 usable images being produced- there was very little blur and my camera setting ensured the subject was in focus, if I had any criticisms for this shoot it would be that I did not take enough images.

I think this image above is one of my best images due to the accidental blur which makes the image more dynamic as the subject on the left is in focus which on the right it seems as if someone is intruding with anonymity due to the blur and what they are wearing. This image also has slight symmetry due to the yellow window frames of the box.
