A Work in Progress

I have managed to make this work in progress from the photos that I have managed to take from the first photoshoot, it's no where near a final product but it helps me with ideas for placement.

Photo (After Shot 1)

I will be performing another photo shoot soon, however for now these are the first batch of photos with one outfit on a test scenery, (The scenery and location was just for test)

Magazine Shots (Final Ideas)


 As my magazine shots are now being finalised, I have had yet again more changes but I am actually much more excited for the final shot ideas that I've taken, they will be up this evening.

Here are some shots to present the ideas I wanted to show to my audience :
1. Female DJ (electronic Musician)

The idea of presenting females in the electronic music scene is extremely complicated as it tends to have the unfortunate attachment of showing off a lot of skin,  so I wanted to find a way to dumb down this attachment (not completely) and still make the image quite sensible and professional, yet fun to look at.

For this my female model has a selection of dresses that she has chose to wear, each with different colours and with different props (Headphones, Glasses) to show the same image presented above...

There is another invention I have tried with these photos which has never been used with Female models in any music scene... the idea of masks.

The reason I like this is because for female body structure there is nothing that needs to be inventive about the masks, just something that conceals the face, therefore concealing identity, possibly causing more attraction the musician themselves.

I also like the idea of Bandanas being used in the presentation of the shots.

Magazine Photo Changes

Due to unfortunate delays of not having equipment and being exceedingly unwell, I was unable to complete my photoshoot, because of this I have changed the ideas that I have had for my shots around.


This is now the style of image I will be heading for, though i will create two versions, and have two models to work with...
Version A - 1 - Male (White Background, Keyboard)
Version A - 2 - Male (Broken Building Background, Snapback, Keyboard)

Version B - 1 - Female (White Background, Keyboard)
Version B - 2 - Female (Broken Building Background, Snapback, Keyboard)

Both of these shots will still display the casual outfit of the Electronic Dance Music scene, yet show perhaps the technical revolutions that is allowing DJ's to invent larger than life shows...
