1 to 1 with Katie
14:19
Today I booked a one to one with Katie to get some feedback on my last shoot and to see if I can get more of an idea of direction for my work.
Katie's favourite image from the shoot was this one, which was a little different to my others and experimented with a different crop. I hadn't really thought too much about this image previously and was more focused on the image which had both models together. She suggested I further explore the quirky cropping and experimenting with composition, to create a more interesting image which matches the cropping style of my still life and landscapes.
Both these two images look rather 'floaty'; do I need to introduce- or rather not get rid of, shadows in post to maintain a sense of gravity in the left. Although I haven't composited the bag onto the hand in the right hand image, it does look as though I have, something I want to eliminate.
I showed this quick experiment to Katie and I was surprised to find that she quite liked it. I wasn't sure about it as it looked to processed and unauthentic, however she said she expects the colour to match perfectly between the two peaches either end and the blues of the bag and the sky. This simple retouching will really bring the three images together as a whole series.
