Examples of work for my Studio Folio

Here are some examples of the work I want to do in the Studio. As I am doing accessories I have chosen the theme of the colour purple to tie all my images together. I am going to have my images black and white and the accessory in colour to make it stand out more and so that it is very obvious that the image is all about the accessory. I have completed one successful shoot and will post images once they are fully completed :)

These examples are from the Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2009 Ad Campaign and the Photographers were Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott.

Examples of work for my Location Folio

This semester for my location folio I will be doing Environmental Sport Portraits... Here are some examples I found..

Some of the sports portraits I will be shooting are:
Womens Rugby Union Players
Motorcross Riders
Mountain Bikers
Irish Dancers
Horse Riders

I haven't done a proper shoot just yet but should be doing one this weekend and will post photos then :)

Photo Prac 5 for me this semester!

As everyone is aware I'm a semester behind when it comes to the Prac work..

So for this semester I will be shooting purple accessories in the studio, some of the images will have models and others wont. I am quite excited as I have been doing lots of research and have decided that I will make my images black and white with the accessory still in colour, so that the viewer can focus mainly on the accessory itself. I have found lots of awesome purple accessories as well as realising I have some at home myself! Cant wait to get started shooting this week :)

I have been checking out the latest fashion ad campaigns by famous designers such as Giorgio Armani, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Dunhill & Valentino. Some of the amazing photographers for these campaigns include: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot, Steven Meisel, Steven Klein and Greg Williams. I found most of these ad campaigns on the Haute Fashion website www.hautfashion.com which has been very useful!

For location I am doing environmental sport portraits. I will be taking portraits of sports people dressed in their appropriate sporting attire and they will be at the place where their sport takes place. Some people I already have lined up include: Irish Dancers, Equestrian Riders, Womens Rugby players and Motorbike Riders. I am also in contact with a swimmer, a soccer player and a netballer. Am hoping to have everyone locked in and everything finalised by next week :)

Will post some example pictures later on!
