what did I do?

For the environmental photos I went to the library and asked my friend if I could take pictures of her sitting and/or standing while reading a book. I then went onto Lightroom and edited the photos into black and white, I lightened her hair so you could see the details in the curls within her hair.

For the studio photos/ exploring lighting I asked my friend if I could take photos of her in the studio, we used techniques such as the butterfly effect, chiaruscuro and rembrandt lighting, after taking the photos I edited them on Lightroom turning it into black and white.

For the identity photos I took pictures of the same person I used for the environmental photos, I took pictures of different body parts and a reflection in the mirror. The reason I didn’t include any photos of her face is because I feel like keeping her face hidden would make the photos more mysterious, I thought keeping the pictures of body parts fitted femininity better.

what was successful

What was successful about the environmental photos was that i was able to take pictures in a place that my friend and I love to go to in our own time. I like how the black and white makes the image pop more.

What was successful about the studio photos/ exploring light was that I was able to do all of the techniques and have a positive outcome.

What was successful about the identity photos was that I was able to get the photos that I was aiming for in the end.

what could’ve been done better

What could’ve been done better about the environmental photos was that I could’ve taken more photos in other places other than the library.

What could’ve been done better about the studio photos/ exploring light is that I could’ve explored more with different colour lights for a more unique look.

What could’ve been done better about the identity photos is that I wish I took more variety of different photos so I could have a wider range of photos.

overall

overall I think I manged to complete some photos of what I was aiming for, However I hoped to have more photos overall.
