This is a Fashion story that I wanted to create. A Photo Shoot with no make up and single top lighting.
Simple, raw and beautiful portraits is all that I had in mind.
I got lucky with the styling with this shoot. I wanted something to match the simpleness but also to stand out. So come forth the pink Coat.

As you can see from my photograph above its Raw Beauty. The model is beautiful.
Simple lighting setup with the one light with most of it spilling onto the background to give this dark emotional look to add to her facial expression.
Fashion Stories
Fashion stories are something that I really enjoy doing.
They usually consist of 6 or so images telling a story when they are put together, or side by side to each other.
They all keep the same theme, for example, background coloration. Keep all the images together with similar background colours. Make them all fit in. For my fashion story here I have used white and a slightly soft blue background giving a gentle feel to the whole story.
This is what my fashion story looks like completed

The Rest Of The Photo Shoot
So after the story we continued on the photo shoot. Using the same lighting set ups and the same styling.
As you can see all the same but different outcomes. Personally I love the one on the far right. Looks great in monochrome and shows some attitude.
Here is my video to this photo shoot
On A Personal Note
This photo shoot means a lot to me. Its a very personal shoot hence the song used in my YouTube video. I consider myself as a lone wolf type character. This shoot has enabled me to continue being myself but on a much bigger scale. I guess i'm trying to tell something through these images.
You can see feelings in this photograph and it seems I have the same feelings coming through. This has turned into a personal photograph for me...

hi can i use your photographs for my retouching
ReplyDeleteThese photos are incredible; you have a incredibly talented eye. Is that the lovely and talented Ash Millman? You did an exemplary job of capturing the power of her natural beauty and raw emotion. It's good to see an artist who knows what they're doing creating actual artistic portraiture instead of the amateurish overuse of Instagram filters that's far too prevalent today.
