Personal Shoot No.10 Work Record

During this shoot, i wanted to photograph both people and natural elements such as flowers, plants and trees. When photographing flowers, i wanted them to brightly coloured so that when i would overlay the two different photographs, the flowers will standout from the models face. Then when photographing the model, i wanted to take close ups as well as head shot on an angle so that the models  facial features would standout and then the flower photographs would be able to wrap around them so that the overlaying looks more realistic. 

This is one of my final edits from this shoot. When choosing which two photographs to overlay, i looked at how they would complement the facial features of the model as i have found that this i a key element when wrapping photographs around a model face or body. Position of the flower photograph was very important as i wanted it to look as if it was part of the model face. Therefore i positioned it to look as if it is coming out of the model eyes. Once i had overlaid the two photographs, i decided to rub out the flower photograph from the models eye as i wanted his eye to standout and be the main focus of the photograph The models eye was also placed in the centre of the composition so that it was easily identifiable by the audience. 

 This is another example of one of my edits from this shoot. For this edit, i uses a angled portrait of the model as i wanted the flower photograph to look as if it is wrapping around the models facial features to create a realist effect. The model has been removed from the background in order to create a clear outline around the model. When positioning the flower photograph over the portrait, i decided to position it slightly to the left as i still wanted some of the models facial features to be visible. I also decided to rub out the flower layer over the models eyes as i wanted them to stand out from the rest of the photograph.

I was inspired to do this shoot from a photographer which i have look at. I was really interested in how i could incorporate different elements of nature with human faces and body features. Also it meant that i could do a nature/location shoot which was something which i felt that my project lacked in.
