Evaluation
I progressed by experimenting with different lightings with two different models to get my black and white shot mastered and also with my coloured shoot.
I used a soft box for my black and white images with the use of a white reflector to define my models features and to give brightness to areas needed.
I chose to use a white umbrella for my colour shoot because it directs soft light onto the face and I wanted to experiment with another piece of
equipment.
I was happy with the outcomes of my shoots, however my weaknesses were
Directing the light in order for it to bounce off my model correctly to get the best shot.
I felt my communication with the models was my strong point, I was confident and happy with directing them with how I wanted them to pose and I
believe
this reflects in my photos.
I had no back image from my first black and white shoot model, so I recreated my shoot as I wasn’t entirely happy with the outcome of it and I solved
my problem by choosing the right model for my look.
I created a subtle, shimmery make-up look with a wet hair look and concentrated on the cheekbones and lips in my black and white images.
For my coloured shoot I used yellow under the eyes and basic coverage of foundation, I concentrated on the eyes and hair which was dread locked.
I included pictures that reflected natural beauty, the colour and mood of my shoots.
