I have really enjoy our digital image sessions and I felt I have learnt a gained a great deal of knowledge on photography, lighting, general camera settings, and equipment compared to when I first started this year I wasn’t as confident with a camera at all and now I feel I could produce decent images and be proud of them. However the only think I’d change is the make-up I did for the shoot, I wish I had more drama on the eyelashes and more definition with the eyeshadow as with the lighting the eyeshadow didn’t show up as much as I’d of liked.
When it came down to finding inspiration and researching photographers I watched ‘7 Photographs That Changed Fashion’ and took it upon myself to research the featured photographers mentioned. This really helped me figure out what kind of photography style I like, as each photographer had a different style and mood about their work which then lead me to research other photographers work such as my favourite photographer Tim Walker and Nathalie Croquets 'SPOOF' Series.
After learning about different photographers we was then taught about post production and how this has effect on todays society, fashion and make-up industry. With post production I found quite easy as I had previously learnt some tricks in earlier education so I knew the basic editing, but it was also helpful to learn some more techniques that can help make your image look better but not in an over edited way.
Shooting my final images was quite nerve racking at first as I wanted them to turn out as good as I could get them, but once I had got the equipment set up and working I was quite relaxed when directing my model and telling them how to pose and move their face and body. When shooting as well I didn’t just stop after a few images, I made sure I had a few back ups incase when it came to post production they didn’t meet my expectations in what I wanted for my final images and I also made sure I had variety in my poses and composition. Overall I’m very pleased with how my final images turned out and thought both my models did such a good job in giving me what I wanted for this project.
