Idea 1

My first idea of my first shoot will be based around the genre of fashion and portrait photography. Portrait  photography is where you take a picture of a person (preferably a person not an animal) of the persons head and shoulders. For example this is my model (left) in a low key lighting portrait picture. This is an example of portrait photography but then there are the professional photographers who base their work around portrait photography like Angus Thomas (right)
My model Zac Swarbrick has posed for my fashion cover.

Ray lowe
Ray lowe is a professional portrait photographer who's work is recognized as unique. Ray uses the urban environment to specify the image and its unique look. using this kind of photography for fashion could work if used as props in the studio. here are a few examples of one urban photo and two studio photos










Shoot 1

 in this shoot my model Zac had posed for my fashion shoot cover. we had used the black backdrop and a tripod. the first couple of photos we had a few muck ups and then towards the end we got it perfect. Using this backdrop for this kind of photography is one of the two better ones to use (the other one being white)







Shoot 2



In this shoot I decided to add a little bit of colour to the image and I know that fire extinguishers aren't fashionable but it makes the eyes focus on the top half of the image.




Shoot 3
By the end of shoot 3 I had the image that i wanted to use for my fashion cover. Obviously I will crop it down and add the text onto the image but this is the image I will use
