Having looked back at my plan for negotiated study which proposed the idea of capturing a series of photos which were fashion orientated using architectural settings/locations. With this in mind I carried out a test shoot with Helana.
After the shoot I thought about what my intentions had been. I wanted to show structure through the clothing but also have some architecture apparent in the background. I found it difficult to convey this as the architecture I was shooting was not necessarily relevant to the clothing the model was wearing. Also, the park was not the greatest of locations as there was not much architecture to shoot.
Something I was pleased with from this series of images was the framing of these compositions. For some images in this shoot I used a shallow depth of field to ensure the main focus would be on the model.
From what I have learnt from this shoot I will take into account when planning and carrying out my next one. For example I would have the model standing rather than sitting in a slouched position as the clothing becomes hidden when she is sitting down. Another element I would change is the location; my next shoot will be studio based and I will focus on just the clothing to portray elements of architecture which include shape, form, pattern and texture.
