Photoshoot 1

For this photoshoot I explored the theme of femininity, experimenting with different feminine poses and expressions. I took pictures of my sister while she was getting ready to go out, as this overall created some really interesting and unique sets of images. I wanted to get images of the subject looking into the mirror as I thought this was a really interesting concept to experiment with as I could capture from different angles, as she was applying her lipstick or styling her hair. It creates this unique feminine look which is what I wanted to achieve. I didn’t use a main source of lighting, as I preferred the room to be slightly lit up, which overall helped to achieve the dark effect with the subject lit up.

I wanted to make the portraits engaging and interesting, so posing in particular feminine ways and holding lipstick or perfume, makes the portrait a lot more interesting.
