Woodland Creatures

Shadow in Fashion Photography shoot 2

Double exposure test shoot 4

So I wanted to try out a few autumnal shots.. so whilst walking on a crisp day to the parks i took a self portrait against the sunshine and then some images of the surrounding trees, this is what the two looked like combined with an amber glow layered ontop.

Headshots of Rachel

My friend came in asking for some head shots for her dance website, with a simple 2 soft box light set up it was over in a matter of minutes, but the girl is STUNNING! I think I may use her for my Woodland Creatures project (the big daddy thats coming up...)

Playing with 'Hands On' Manipulation

So I was having a look on Pinterest and I found a few images which have been manipulated in a sort of 'hands on fashion', using string and other images... something which I wouldn't mind trying at some point. http://www.pinterest.com/sarahashworth93/string-and-images/

These images were rough attempts at collaging two images, in a similar fashion to John Stezaker.

Headshots with Suzie

Suzie and I had a couple of minutes spare at the end of a shoot yesterday so I thought i'd take a few headshots of her!

Double Exposure Test Shoot 3

I was tired of editing the same image of Tom so I arranged another subject for a test shoot, unfortunately the sky wasn't as bright on the day of the test so the background had a cloudy effect, little did i know that it would lend itself to the photographs atmosphere. Below are images that were create in post-production and I am far happier with these results than previous shoots. I asked the subject to pose in certain positions and gave thought to what landscapes would compliment them, some of these landscapes I then chose to flip vertically, so the tops of the trees were facing down... It gives the subject an 'unfinished' look.

Double Exposure Test Shoot 2

So after using the Nikon D90 to create double exposure images 'in camera', I wanted to experiment with photoshop and see if I could create the same effect in post- production. The images below are the result of many attempts at creating a layered effect that worked as well as those created 'in camera';
