I decided to do another photoshoot in with more control over what I was wearing and what I looked like. I wanted to do a series of images where I was wearing make-up, wearing lots of jewellery and a nice top, looking like I was ready to go out, and then a second set of images with no make-up, in a hoodie and no jewellery looking like I would if I was relaxing at home.
I wanted these two versions of myself to clash, yet also reflect that it was still the same person just different aspects of them.
I wanted to show a bit more confidence in my body language for the above image, as after spending time on how I look and being out with friends relaxing, I'm generally more outspoken than I would be in a more formal environment with people I don't know that well.
This next image was intended to show me as more conservative in my body language and a bit more wary of my surroundings. This is me on a normal day, and as I'm naturally quite a lazy person I don't usually tend to make much of and effort with my appearance preferring to spend extra time sleeping, so I have no make-up on, and haven't picked out a nice outfit or anything, just thrown on whatever. This does however make me more self conscious about my appearance so I wanted this pose to look more insecure and withdrawn.
I was thinking of doing three characters in the final image, so I directed several photos to be taken where I had my hands out either side palms out, so if I wanted to I could edit that into an image.
I enjoyed shooting outside for this photoshoot as the wind and the greenery in the background made for a more dramatic atmosphere to the images.
