Extending Specialist Techniques - rebelious

I did Shannon's make up and to be fair she doesn't look like her usual cute bright self, looks like a badass with her dark make up on so I got her to act like a badass and took photo's.

The outcome is impressive and I'm quite proud of myself as I managed to convert Shannon into something she's not, which is quite an accomplishment.

She's totally like 'I'm better than you'

I like how this one is a little bit blurry and Shannon looks kind of pissed off, it's like she's really gotten into character, can't forget that it's not only the photographer that makes a picture work, it's the model too..

(I didn't want her to get addicted but she told me that she sometimes smokes when she's drunk so it's ok i guess) The concentration, love it.

The flow of the picture makes it successful, she is facing the same way that her hand is leaning towards and the same way the wind is blowing the trees. I love what the dark eye make up can do, it creates nice shadows that are over dramatic which fits in the theme.

I got her to sit against the wall because I wanted to create something with the lighting that was laying really nicely in a diagonal line across her body, I like the effect of how her chin and knees are lit up by the sun and the rest is on the dark side, the wind outside really helps with the gothic style as it makes her hair look messier.

I think this photo is the best one out of the whole lot, the graffiti on the wall adds to the 'rebellious' look, the expression, body language and composition all work out together to create the perfect image, of this mental punk girl doing her thing hahah

fmp - don some ugly belly pics

First 3 pictures - Relating to Jenny Saville, using a fish-eye lens, to bulk out my stomach I took slightly distorted photos. Jenny Saville presses herself against see through surfaces and paints herself to over -exaggerate her size and that's what I did here but photographically.

I like the subtle colours, the skin tone and the slightly red marks above my belly button - I think the colours really work together, I took photo's from different angles and joined them to create a trio of images//

FMP - ME

FMP - experiments

I'm going to be projecting images onto my body next week so I'm trying to find ways of doing so, and images to project. So far I've experimented with my previously taken images of fairy lights and joined them with already taken photographs of my body and composed double exposures, just to see what happens.

I tried to fit the lights in to each individual image by turned them around and changing the scale but I didn't have a big variety of the light images to work from.

FMP - Social documents disposable camera

Really need to use disposable cameras more often, I love the way the photo's come out and I don't have to worry about any settings, it's especially good for social document - all I have to do it rewind, put the flash on and take a picture, and they always turn out well.

I tried using a fish-eye lens on the disposable camera, it actually turned out better than I expected.

Very heavy snow, I like the way the flash reflects on the snowy mirror.

It even caught the snow on camera, that's very rare to happen.

this does not look like 2017

I didn't want people to pose for pictures but at soon as they see a camera they're like yessss. So it ruined my plan.

For some reason I really like the composition in this photo, the number 54 on the train seat just looks right in the setting.

I weirdly like watching people eat a lot of food, he told me to stop staring and take a picture because it'll last longer, so I did.
