Photo Shoot!!

Over the weekend whilst I was at home I produced my photo shoot for this project!!

I think the photo shoot went successful! I captured 198 photographs of different relationships people have using the park bench setting I featured earlier in my blog.

I photographed 9 different relationships;
Best friends x3 - children at the age of 5, teenage girls at the age of 19 and women at the age of 45 and 46,
Lovers x2 - my grandparents aged 71 and 75 and my mother / step father aged 45 and 36,
Siblings aged 5 and 21,
Mother and Daughter, 
Father and Daughter,
Mother, Father and Daughter.
I feel I covered a wide spectrum of different types of relationships and different age ranges, giving me a vast set of photographs to choose from to represent the brief the best.

Here are the best photographs that I selected from the shoot:
















I've selected these photographs from the shoot as I feel they best represent the relationships I was trying to portray in each image. They were also the most natural of the collection I shot - which was the aim of the shoot; to represent different relationships in their natural state.
I'm really pleased with how the photographs have turned out and I also like the subtle heart I have featured in each shot; being inspired by the photograph photographer Matt Stuart took I used the red heart I made (featured earlier in my blog) and attached it to the bark of a tree behind the bench - I think this works really well.

What to do now?  Now I have taken and selected the best photographs, from the photo shoot, I need to edit them on Photoshop to ensure each photograph looks as professional and effective as possible.
I also want to try and experiment with putting each image into Black and White, and then feature the material heart in red, as i think this will look effective and create more of a mood to each photograph.
