Morning.

I am going to edit some photographs inspire by female photographers’ that represent females and femininity. I will show some of the process of my work in Lightroom and photoshoot. I have roughly around 200 images to chose from and edit for my final prints.

Few photos to start….

Here is a photo of me , holding a lipstick that I edited and changed the vibrancy and contrast , as well as the colours to make the picture more clear.

Here is a photo of me editing, mid way through and not done to show you proof of the work I am doing.

Photoshoot photos

Here I am showing you the process of me editing a second picture in photoshop.

The photos that I have chosen so far are great because I think that they show a sense of girlhood and womanhood. They can show aspects of us as strong independent women, just by doing simple things such as,

1. Relax Your Body and Face. …
2. Use Real Laughter to Translate Authenticity into Your Photos. …
3. Bring Your Ears Forward to Avoid a Double Chin. …
4. Put Your Hands on Your Hips. …
5. Try a Candid Pose. …
6. Turn Your Body Slightly to the Side. …
7. Check Your Posture.

Can make all the difference in how feminine or masculine a photo can look.

In my third photo I am going to duplicated someone onto me twice, in this photo its a mix of feminine photos and portrait’s. I really like this because it shows two sides to photograph and shows a lot within the female society.

I got rid of the flower as it wasn’t fitting with the photo and made the photo black and white to make it appear as if it was taken in the 90s- Inspired by Cindy Sherman which is what I am trying to achieve in some of my photographs, damsel in distress and beauty within the 90s.

My aim for this photo is Sherman, she got many different model types and here is an example of what I’m trying to achieve, Why ? because I think her photos are stunning and show nostalgia.

Here’s an example of her work.

I love this photo because I think its stunning, it outlines me and all my perfections and flaws as we all do have.

Here is a photo I edited side by side compassion.

I like the purple colour especially within girlfriend’s and girls being happy together.

I used this photo because its a very cool and chilling photo and Photography has become an omnipresent art and activity today. It has moved from being a specialized art in the hands of a skilled photographer, to being a daily use activity in the hands of each and every common man. This is represented in this photograph.

Midday

This photo gives off a bit of butterfly and light affect as its very light.

I also rated my photos with starts from 1 being the worst and 5 being the best. This shows you which you rated best to worst.

This is a 4 star phot because its very plain, however I still do like it as it represents everyone as a collective in society because of our mobile phones.

Here is a 5 star, in my opinion.

And last but not least, a one star…

This is a 5 star photo because I love the colours and the way the top is backless. The colours are giving a sort of Ombre affect and this was doing in the studio by the lights and editing theme a but on Lightroom. I like the way my face appears smooth and clear , its a modest pose with the long blonde hair.

This photo is a very feminine photo, not to say boys cant wear makeup but however make-up is sterically aimed and marketed to woman and photoshoots like these also target them as its very feminism. A lady putting on lip-gloss shows beauty and make up on.

Environmental

Here’s an environmental edited photograph. I used a mix of all three . I used environmental, portraits and masc. vs fem. I really like these styles of photos especially portraitist because it brings up all of the perfections and insecurities of man and women. Portraits often show us what a person looks like, but they can also capture an idea of a person or what they stand for. Portraits can also tell us how a person wants to be seen, and capture a particular mood that the sitter is experiencing.

Portraits

Here is an edited portrait photo.

Before 2

Here is a photo before of two girls playing in the snow, realising their inner childhood and having fun even though they’re growing up and some may think there to old but they are embracing the snow which is quiet rare where they live.

These photos are side by side comparison of the difference after being edited, and you can see there is quiet the difference.

This photo shows vibrancy and a girl with a knitted jumper on, trying to stay warm but also looking nice with her choice of clothes and fashion. I love this photo as it shows loads of different colours, blue, black, green, yellow, green and a sort of spotlight on the back after being edited on Lightroom.

Side by side comparison.

In the first photo you can barley see the model, however after the photo has been edited you can see her a lot more clear and you can see a lot more especially with all the colours.

This photo is kind of of giving a drawling look, as if done by a pencil. An old school type of photo.

Lightroom completely changes a picture, it was black before any editing and after you can see me quiet well with nice colours, here is closer look.

Here is the iso and etc of this photo after being changed in Lightroom.

I spent the rest of them editing images and here are my final outcomes for masculinity vs feminist, environmental and portraits.
