Photoshoot:
Best photos
Experimentation 1 – Diamond cameo
I have experimented with different colour backgrounds as well as a drop shadow and border around the images.
I have made these images by using the drop box that appears after you double click on one of my selected images;
I used this to adjust the border thickness and colour, as well as adjusting the drop shadows. I then right clicked on my edited photo and pasted the adjustments onto my other images;
Experimentation 2 – Vignette portraits
Other experiments
Evaluation
I have taken various pictures of different angles of my subject like how Henry Mullens did with his portraits.
I’ve experimented with various textured backgrounds for my images to try and add to an old or worn down look, I have also tested different borders around the background and image itself.
I have used warm browns and beige to add more colour and make my images more interesting and not as flat. I have also attempted to combine Vignette portraits with a Diamond cameo format as well as some other formats.
Excellent blog post Saskia with many creative versions of a diamond cameo.
Well done > keep going!
