This is the first photo-shoot where I ventured outside and experimented with different textures for backgrounds. This shoot served as a tester for this location, which I will return to at a later date to complete a proper shoot. I liked the mix of backgrounds, and I will use these for my proper shoot. I barely edited these photos as the lighting on that day did most of the work for me.
This shot was an impromptu shot on the way back from the location, as we found this gorgeous coloured blue barn door. The lighting on this day was cloudy which I found perfect for portrait shots as having a bright sun tends to highlight imperfections and flush the model out.
This shot was also on the way back from the main shoot. This photo is slightly blurry which I don't like, but I love the contrast of the black polo-neck against the bright green of the leaves.
I loved using this wide tree as a background as it was wide enough to fill the shot and the texture means the background is interesting but it doesn't distract the eye from the models face, but instead compliments it. Having the model slightly off center means the shot feels more considered and less basic than having them dead in the center of the photo.
This photo, if in black and white, feels reminiscent of Slimane's photos of Jake Bugg outdoors, due do the setting. The flowers make an interesting background, and the cloudy lighting was perfect for portraits as it was bright enough to be clear without completely flushing out the model's face.
The brightness of this photo is slightly too high as the left side of the models face has lost it definition slightly. I like the composition of this photo as having the model in the bottom hand corner is slightly more unusual.
Having some of the flowers in the foreground of the photo creates different depths of field.
