Photos From My First Photo Shoot


Taylah surrounded by bags and receipts, gasping at one of the reciepts from the amount of money she has spent. I quite like this photograph as it is, but I would like to look at using a different background. I would like to re-shoot the couch in the background and replace the blanket and the scarf with more bags, receipts and purchases to expand on my idea.


Taylah listening to an MP3. I might re-shoot this photo and get her to dance around or appear to be singing instead. I want to Photoshop in the album art of a band that use explicit language, something that she shouldn't be listening to. If I was to use this photo I would replace the background so you can't see my sister walking through.


Taylah dressed up to look like a famous person, in this case Lady Gaga. I think this photo is really cute and she really enjoyed doing it. I would like to replace the background with a shot of a bedroom wall that is plastered with Lady Gaga posters and memorabilia.


Aerika getting her hair straightened. I think this photo is quite cute, but I don't think it really says a lot. Probably wouldn't use the same subject matter in my final portfolio.


Aerika trying on high heels. For this photo she became really difficult and wouldn't get in the photo unless my sister was sitting next to her (you can see her dressing gown on the left hand side. My original idea was to have her sitting in the closet with a lot of shoes surrounding her which I think would've been a lot better. Could re-shoot with Taylah.


Aerika drinking milk out of a martini glass. This is probably one of the best shots I got. I think she looks really cute and innocent with her missing teeth showing, which also helps to show her age. If I was to use this photo I would use a different background (if it is possible to mask it out).


Aerika using my laptop. If I was to use this photo I would Photoshop in the image of a website that she shouldn't be looking at at her age. I would also mask out the background a bit.
