Shoots 3

Just a note on couple shoots, I've been doing as many couple shots as I can to challenge myself. The difficulty level is doubled, lighting is now for two people, direction is for two people, and on review of the photos in some one model looks amazing and in some the other model looks amazing... the final image is a compromise of both. The more experience the models have the easier it is.

7/ Fashion Photography

I aim to incorporate the following areas in my fashion photography research;

1/ HISTORY: How Fashion photography has evolved over the decades in terms of style, subject matter etc

2/ PHOTOGRAPHERS

3/ TECHNICAL ASPECTS: Lighting for fashion photography

4/ ETHICS: Digital manipulation, bombardment of imagery and how this shapes society's perception

5/ THE DIGITAL AGE: How technology has effected the way we produce and view fashion photography
