Photo-shoot Photos

With all of my photo-shoots, there are photos that will be suitable and some that are unsuitable. Therefore, I had to look through my options and decide which photos were worth using. Here I'll show some examples of my analysis of my photos.

This is one of the successful images I took. The picture has got good lighting, and the model is in a effective pose, which could potentially fit in my products well. The make-up and costume also make an impact, and allow the fashion genre to flourish successfully. Overall, this image in particular will go well within all of my products, and will clearly support my content.

On the other hand, this picture is definitely unsuitable. I could not use this image as the fell length image has shown the bottom of my back drop, and the floor in our vision. Also, there are shadows in the image which, again, shows low quality material and unprofessionalism. Due to this, it will not be making an appearance within my work, as it will not fit the basic criteria for a professional product, and also the criteria of my target audience.

This is another successful photo from my shoot. The image has a good backdrop and has minimal shadows from the outline. The model is posing in an effective form, and the proportion of the composition gives it potential to be a front cover image.The choice of makeup and costume also shows examples of the genre, which will allow my target audience to apprecita ethis image when seen within my productss

This photo may have had potential, however the lighting totally ruins the effect, and therefore makes the image low quality. When the picture was took the lighting must have glitched or the position of the camera may have enabled the picture to not receive the light that was provided. By this, facial features are dimly presented, as well as hair and costume which is vital to present when dealing with the fashion genre as these are the main elements. Overall, I knew that this image would not be suitable for my magazine, billboard or website, therefore, I put it aside and chose from my other successful photos. 

Prop Organisation

For my shoots, I may need a range of props to help me with taking the photos, and to possibly appear in the photos. Therefore, I have made this lost to guide me for when I look back to be reminded on what I am going to need once I am ready to take pictures.

Props:

• A high quality camera: This prop is essential, as without this, my photos will not be up to the standard I wish them to be, and will therefore not be suitable for my products.
• Professional lighting: When in the studio, the photos may as well be worthless if professional high key lighting isn't used, as this will give me the high quality look, and allow my photos to be suitable for my work
• Fashionable costume: This is vital, as without this, my magazine or ancillary products may not be took seriously as a fashion brand, if the models do not look slightly fashionable. 
• Mac computer: This will allow me to upload my photos quickly and to help me edit on some of its own features and Photoshop 
• Make-up: Again, this will help the aesthetics of the shoot, and allow my photos to fit in with the fashion genre. 
• Chair: This may come in handy if I wanted some differentiation with my pictures, and therefore supply different poses for my images. 
• Tripod: This could be needed when trying to establish various shots. 

Photo-Shoot Location Plans

Within this Prezi presentation, I have expanded on my thoughts of where I plan to set my photo- shoots. I have went through the positives and the downfalls of each setting that I have chose, and described why and how they would fit in amongst my genre and within my products.

Costume and Make-up Ideas

In this slideshow, I have presented my plans my costume and make-up ideas for my shoot. Within this I have justified why have chose certain inspirations, and how I will incorporate them into my own work.

Booking my model

In these screenshots I ask my potential model if she is still interested in modelling for my regional fashion products. I have done this to plan and organise ahead so that I am fully prepared. In this message I have got across everything that I want and expect from her performance in  my shoot. By doing this, she herself feels prepared and can already plan ahead.

Photo-Shoot Planning

Like my Recce, these documents show my planning for my photo shoots in the future. I have gone through all the plans and possibilities for my photoshoots, to ensure that I am completely organised.

Recce

In these documents I have created a heath and safety precaution, and talked about things I need to think about and keep in mind when planning and starting my photoshoot.
