I am calling my photo book ‘The Male Gaze’, the title of my book is in a light pink colour which carries on with the theme of stereotyping women. It contains a series of images which I have taken across 40 pages. I have chosen to create my book in portrait as it fits my portrait images better. Moreover, I have chose the sequencing of these images in a way in which each image will have a corresponding/ similar image on the next page. While placing the images into a book format in Light Room I did have to re-edit some photos to make sure that the tones flowed through each page. For example, with my black and white images, I had to adjust the black levels and the exposure, where as with the colour photos taken in the pool, I ensured that the colours of the water where all matching. Furthermore, I am pleased with the outcome which is shown in the screenshots above as it corresponds with my own interpretation of the theme of Observe, Seek & challenge.
Experimenting with my photobook:
I experimented with my book in landscape, however, i decided to switch to portrait as II believe it suits my portrait images better.
