Photos for DPS

Reasons for my photos: Location

• I decided to base my photo shoot in a flat to really give it an urban feel. Also the brick wall gave the images an r&b feel which I really liked. I took some of the photos on the stairs, some on the window seal and some just in front of the brick wall. This is because I wanted to add one main image and then 3 sub images at the top to show their contrasting personalities.

Reasons for my photos: Mise en scene

• Clothing wise ,the outfits are more street and edgy. I chose this outfits from what my audience research said, responses were that monochrome, dark colors are what represents true r&b so from this is why how I chose the clothing. However I didn’t want the girls to look the same so I decided to change up the footwear, one wore trainers, another wore timberlands and the last girl wore booted heels.

Reasons for my photos: Angles

• The main shot which I used was long shots so I could show the girls full outfits however at times I did do mid shots to show variety and they turned out really good. For the sub images, they were mid shots/close ups as I really wanted the focus on the girls and their individual photos
