For my final shoot I
had a very clear idea of what I wanted to do. I new from the start I wanted
heavy black and white contrast. In terms of what I wanted my models to do was
to be completely free with their facial expressions, just like I had been with
my ink and water portraits. I wanted them to feel relaxed enough that they could
be silly and let their faces do as they pleased. If there was something they
had done with their face that I liked but had missed taking the image the first
time I would ask them to go back to what they were talking about to see if I could
get the expression back or I would do something similar with my face and they
would accidentally copy it without realising.
The only thing I did
on Photo Shop was enhancing the levels to make some of the shadows darker and
highlights lighter for more of a contrast. Also I found a clarity tool, which I
had not seen before and used it a little on all of the images. I didn’t use light
room because the system was down and only started working again after I had
sent for my prints to be printed. I’m not to worried about this as a can always
practice with light room now its up and working and at the same time I am happy
with how my images have turned out.
