Headshots with Sophie & Kane

Headshots with Zoe Patrick

After the success of the quick headshots shoot with Rachel I decided the easiest (and most fun) way for me to raise money would be to do a special offer so I put out an advert with the following written on it: 

"For a small fee of £5 you can have up to a maximum of 10 high quality photos taken professionally in a studio environment with a FULL lighting kit. Contact me via e-mail at: sarah.ashworth11@bathspa.ac.uk or via facebook.

All funds raised will go towards the Photography and Digital media Graduation show in London this summer."

Zoe was the first person to get in touch, she needed professional photos for her acting portfolio. A simple grey backdrop and 2 soft box layout was best for this type of shoot! Her eyes were beautiful.. would be great to do a macro of in the future?

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...)

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!

Shadows in Fashion Photography

So its my final year at Uni and everything is happening all at once, I have to complete 2 projects (with full research) and my whole dissertation by the Christmas holidays. Eep. This first project is a studio based shoot which explores the human body and form with the use of unique studio lighting, its about creating interesting poses with the model and trying out different compositions of the lighting and the subject.

For this project I will be using a Digital Medium format camera (whilst I still have use of the uni's equipment) and will be collaborating with a stylist to ensure the model is dressed and styled correctly.

This is the first of the shoots, testing out different shadows and poses with the model:

Shadows in Reflection; the next step

When I was looking at a video of Rihanna for her song called 'You Da One' which was heavily influenced by Solve Sundsbo's work, and there was a shot where they duplicated her image in the single frame, I wanted to try and do something similar and I stumbled upon a pretty cool idea for these images... why not make them look as if they are part of a Kaleidoscope, by reflecting the image onto itself. There are still a couple of kinks and ways that this project could evolve.
