Work Diary - Shoot 5

In this session i focused on female and male portraits. I thought this was a good starting point for my life experience topic. I went in the studio and used my own camera as it connected to the lights we have in the studio. However all of the photographs that i took came out extremely dark and after changing both the settings on the camera and on the actual lights there was not much difference.

I edited the curves and levels on Photoshop and this brightened up the photographs.

This photograph of my female model, i feel this is a good photograph as even after it had been brightened it still has no shadowing and shows the formal element of from very well. I captured her facial expression and her hair as i feel it shows her sex extremely well. 

However this photograph of my male model did not turn out so good, due to the shadow behind his head, however the shadow on his face shows a good form of his bone structure.

Progression; In my next shoot i will focus on feminine and masculine items as i feel it will show the difference within the types of things that different genders own and use. This is a photograph similar to that which i would like to take especially for femininity as i feel that high heels are a femminine object due to the shape etc.
