Making of 2nd Photoshoot

We started at 4pm on Friday 3rd of April and finished around 7pm

I first started with learning to take off the date on the pictures since I realised from the 1st photoshoot which was needed since it was a hassle to take it off in the editing process, I then had to change the setting to auto since it was still set on shutter (S) from the last time and I had to rearrange the colour and brightness contrast since this was a darker setting with a bright light from the projector compared to my natural outside lighting from my other shoot. Like so:

The projector was positioned at a high angle with a white screen we got from taking of a painting which was good because it was above the couch will allowed them to stand on it or sit on the ledge of the couch to get to a higher position if needed.

I guided my models by positioning them either more to the left, right, higher or lower. i got some pictures where i had this problem like these.

While i was taking individual pictures of the girls they both helped me with the movement and getting what i need and putting each other in the right positions, so no i did not have a designated assistant but they helped me a lot so you can think of them as assistants and also models. I did have help from my friends dad for the set up and some camera settings. His laptop was also the one connected to the speaker.

I had started with a back x-ray picture from my inspiration and added a lung and face x-ray so i did get some ideas along the way of the photoshoot.

I did do every picture i had in mind and the inspiration pictures i had were recreated in my own way as well

I am really happy with the results, i did get really tired by the end of it and i think my models did too, now that i have charged the pictures to my laptop i realised i have to play a bit with the lighting of the pictures and the projector pictures displayed weren’t the best quality which i didn’t think you would be able to see through the camera pictures but you can which bummed me out.

I would try my best to get better quality pictures to display if i would have to do it again.
