Final Photo shoot Colour

Final Photo shoot Colour

These are the final images I have chosen for my coloured digital images. I really enjoyed this shoot an taking the images. If I could change anything about the shoot I would take my time taking the pictures and doing the make-up as I feel as if I rushed them both. I think I need to get more practice in taking photos and experimenting with the lighting. I have found out from the last shoot that the beauty box lighting works best with the models face. Editing the images I changed a few things  (temperature: 3750, tint -1, vibrance +35, Saturation -18, reds +57, blues -36). I am really made up with the out come of them and think I done the best I can considering this is the first time doing digital image production and I can only get better with my next project.

Final Photo shoot images B&W

Final Photo shoot images B&W

Here are some of the best images for one of my final shoots, these are the images that I have chosen for the b&w shoot. I wasn't really fond of the images from this photo shoot as first and I really struggled with getting the right lighting and what lighting best suited the model but after looking through my notes and finding how to set up and the notes about the different lighting I finally got to grips with it.
I didn't like the images in colour but when I changed  them to b&w I loved the way they looked and am really pleased with them. I didn't edit them much just made the red more darker and left the rest.


SO HAPPY WITH THE OUTCOME

Third Practice

Third Practice

Only had a few minutes but I wanted to try some action shots with flipping the hair. I used a beauty dish again and loved how the images have turned out.

Second Photo shoot Practise

Second Photo shoot Practise.

Today we just stuck to using a beauty dish as I liked the effect it gave to the pictures and made the skin look a lot brighter. 
I liked the natural pose of this picture below of her laughing, the best shots are the unexpected shots .

The Use of Lighting to Create a Mood

The Use of Lighting to Create a Mood

High Key Lighting

By Javier Garceche & Luis de las Alas  #white:
[1]
Hight key Lighting are mostly bright images, with a range of white and light tones and not very many black or mid-tones. It gives of a happy, upbeat mood.
Using a white or light pastel coloured background

Low Key Lighting

Low Key Lighting is a lot of fun and creates portraits with great visual impact. Here’s a great example by AP Photographie. The image was taken with a Canon 5D Mark II + Canon 85mm f/1.8 (ISO100 – f/10 – 1/160e) The Light was a Elinchrom D-Lite RX4 / Rotalux 135cm. Read more about Low […]:

Low key is the opposite to High key lighting and depends on shadows, deep blacks and darker tones with hardly any white and middle tones. Low key lighting gives of a mysterious, dramatic mood.
