Mounting and Evaluation

With two of my images I flipped them horizontally so that each of the faces would be facing into the middle. This is so viewers eyes don't leave my 4 images. I chose the 4 with the same leaves because I thought they worked best as a set and looked best together. I wanted my layout to be simple so people would only concentrate on the images. Overall I think my images turned out the way I want them to. They portray the meaning of what a heart means to me and hopefully show a connection between nature and humans. I chose the saying 'The goal of life is living in agreement with nature' as a title because I thought it fitted perfectly with my meaning and images.

Blending Images 2

I think this image close up works well because you can see the heart on her nail. I think the natural lighting and pose works with the nature aspect of it all, but I don't know how it would fit with the rest of the images.

These 4 images work really well as a set. Mainly because I have used the same leaves image to blend into the 4 individual images, but I don't know if they are to similar although they do work together because they tell a story.

Blended Images

I've taken the 4 images and created two sets of photographs I could use. With this first set I have used 4 different leave images. This was to see the affects the different images would create over my original images. I think as individual images they work but as a set the leaves are to different so they don't work.

Photo Shoot

I have created contact sheets so you can see the images I took on my photo shoot. Out of these images I narrowed it down to 4 main images which I think work best together. After i've picked the 4 images I'm going to blend the leaves into them to create a similar look as the dazed and confused shoot I found.

Final Props

I painted my models nails red to fit the brief. I drew a heart on one of them to portray in one of my photos that both nature and humans have hearts. I also cut out loads of little hearts and bought glitter to use for the shoot.

Makeup

I'm trying to find ways of portraying my heart emotion across through the makeup or props I use. I've found 3 images which I find inspiring and can help me had the red in to my images. I will try these on my model to add a fashion twist to my nature shots. After taking these I will then blend the images together to create one final image.

Poses

I need to bring fashion into my shots some how. So I want the images I have taken of nature to be my background which I can blend the image of my model into. I want my images to portray life from two different objects; human and nature. I will use hearts to add the red into it so they will fit the brief. I have taken a photo and drawn images of what poses my models going to do to add my hearts in to it.

I will have a head and shoulder shot of my model with her hair in a ponytail so it's off her face. I will then draw a heart on her lips with lipstick. This will stand out against everything else.

I will cut out loads of hearts from red card and place them all into my models hand. I'm not to sure whether it will be just her hands or with her head in it as well. I want these two images to portray that the two objects have hearts by having them blend together.
