who, what when, how where
For this photo shoot I am going to have my sister as the subject, and capture her in different moments, in particular as she is applying her makeup, doing her hair and then portraits of her once she is ready. My goal is to document her as she gets ready in her ‘natural’ environment, capturing unfiltered moments that express her inner world. I am going to slightly edit the images, adjusting areas slightly for example highlights and shadows, then showing the subtle contrast that is created from this.

Edited:
For this photo I have slightly edited areas where I thought needed emphacising, but in a subtle way. This brings through the contrasting shadows and highlights, brought from the warmer tones on her face.
Evaluation:
For these portraits I captured a girl as she gets ready, from applying her makeup to her afterwards. I thought this represented union as it shows her and and her world, and how both are connected together. I wanted to capture portraits of the subject as this showed their connection, to then editing the photos in a to form a mosaic pattern. This creates and interesting effect as multiple perspectives are revealed, altering your overall perspective of the image. For the lighting I used a lgiht as well as natural lighting which helped enhance the details of the image. I decided to have the subject holding a makeup brush whilst looking into the camera as this created a strong connection to the audience, as it shows a single moment unfiltered moment which is what I think best describes union.
