#100


One of my edited images from my re-shoot for my studio assignment trying to incorporate natural items with jewellery. On my first shoot I didn't use any jewellery and it was just by means of testing out lighting and how I was going to shoot them! I used one spotlight with my items against a piece of black material; this was improved the second time by using one of the studio cutters. I guess it's a strange combination but I enjoy it! I'll upload more final photographs tomorrow after I have sorted them and converted them to JPEG to upload! 




This second image was a little experiment for my location fashion assignment; looks nothing like the making of a location fashion shoot but bare with me! The means for this was to just see how talcum powder worked as a form of powder which I could use in my photoshoot. 
I've discovered that I need to take several factors into consideration; wind direction and the amount of talc - the bottle ran out very quickly.
It was enough for me to see that talk is quite visible in daylight and would be good to use. I may yet try different powders such as flour but for now, I am pleased.

Spent today doing a reshoot of my still life bones and feathers images! I think they were an improvement to my first photographs however I still need more to go with my series overall. 


I shall upload some example images later on.

Some example business card designs, front and back! 



Three very rough edits from my still life shoot yesterday including bones and feathers; none of these have been cropped in any way just edited slightly.
Emphasis on the word rough as I've not spent loads of times editing them >w<

Where next?
To experiment further with a matte black surface to put my items on top of and to try and incorporate suitable jewellery into my shoots.
I am also trying to get a hold of a skull to add to my series too.

A preview of what I what I did yesterday.
Yesterday's shoot with my bones and crow feathers didn't go as well as I plannned I don't think; time to improve though.

May upload some final images or edits later once I've gone through them all and sorted them out. :)
