Plan for Studio Shoot on 20th of September 2012

  • Glam
  • Low key lighting
  • Spotlight lighting
  • Black and white images

I think I will be continuing with my current theme of fashion shots but perhaps moving off of the 'Trending' theme and more into any fashion.  I want to move into more black and white based images and the more 'glamour' types of photographs.

What I want out of this photoshoot:  I want to achieve glamour close-ups and some long shots of my model.  Not obviously glamour but with an edge and hint of the glamour scene.

Shot Types Plan:

White Backdrop:

  • Model facing backdrop, hand on hip.
  • Model facing backdrop, hand on hip, shoes in hand.
  • Close up and extreme close-up of model putting on lipstick.
  • Hand on chair - Close-up
Black Backdrop:
  • Close-up of model putting on lipstick - with and without mirror
  • Spotlight direct on model's face
  • Close-up of model's hand holding the shoes
  • Model holding her dress and running her hand through her hair
  • Side shot of model holding shoes and without shoes

Lighting:
  • Constant light, light behind model, low key, high key, spotlight and light above model.

                                       My Inspiration:

This formal yet natural lit photograph inspires me because of the vintage look and the simple beauty within the image.

I love this image because of the contrast and the really grainy, soft focus look.  The image isn't technically perfect which is what I like in photographs.  I feel that a great image doesn't have to be technically correct in every way.
 
 
I absolutely love the natural pose and natural lighting in this image.  The contrast of her dress works brilliantly with the white backdrop.  The natural lighting and pose inspire me within this image.


These edgy and really simple black and whites inspire me a lot throughout this shoot planning.  The simple yet effective lighting brings out the beauty in the women.  I feel the women make these photographs and not the lighting as they are beautiful in themselves.

These are some lighting set-ups I have thought of and want to experiment with using tomorrow.
