femininity and masculinity- photoshoot 4

These images below are heavily inspired by Lauren Withrow’s work. I tried to capture the images so they had the same feel to them as all of her photos have this amazing calming and tranquil feeling to them.

I was able to find a field which I felt worked perfectly for Lauren Withrow’s style of work.

This is definitely one of my favourite photos I took for this photoshoot. I love the way i can tell who I was inspired by and captured her exempts without completely coping the image. I think the picture works really well with the model being in focus and the the plants being blurred it kind of creates this boundary between the two. It also softens the image slightly I find which I think helps show off the femininity within the photo.

 

For this photo above I took a lot of inspiration from the image on the right. I though the wind moving the models hair looked so interesting and dynamic. I think the hair gives the image so much movement and life as everything appeared so still without it.

I was tempted to edit the image into black and white however I think the colour of the sea and sky made the image look quite cheerful and happy rather than more dull and gloomy and seeing as I was trying to add life the the image it worked better.

Overall I believe the photoshoot came out well I was happy with the photos. They had clear links to the inspiration. I think all the photos ended up looking really feminine with those soft shapes and colours which is what I was trying to achieve.

I think if I was doing the photos again I would try and have more of a side on shot of the hair in the wind like Lauren Withrow has because I think being able to see her face as well as her her was very successful.
