52 Weeks of Fashion Photography

Week 5

Grunge Fashion

Model: Teagan Frazier

The eye is tricky, because this whole shoot was done in very bright light, as the photo below shows, however the more I edited, the more I began to like the dark mystery of the fashion shoot.

Enjoy.

So I thought I would add a little something extra to my post today.

Sometimes, my models don't want to do their make up - and usually people say "you can just photoshop that right?"
And yes, usually a knowledgeable photographer or editor can.
The thing I think is most important, is to remember that photoshop can't always save a photographer, however, I do enjoy messing with photographs a lot.
In fact, my favorite part, besides interacting with people, is editing them.

I'll give you an example of what I do in a lot of my photographs for people, and then I'll show you the rest of the images. :)

Personal Post

The other day my friends and I did a "friend" shoot.

These three girls are my best friends.

I love them so much.

We got three different outfits and just started coming up with silly ideas.

My reason for this friend shoot is a lot of things.

1. I feel like I really have an established group of friends.

I always have struggled finding girl friends that are not only supportive, but understanding.

I have ran into people that give their opinion about your life, even though your decisions only effect you, and not them. I don't need opinions, I need support, and with these girls I get that.

2. I have been really lacking any type of motivation lately.

When I get home from a shoot, I literally just want to sit down and watch a movie, or go to the gym. I hardly feel like editing, and I guess once you do it so much, for hours on end, it really is hard to motivate yourself to want to sit in front of a bright computer screen for most of the day.

Today, I have to do that, not only for my own work and promotions, but for a hired job as well.

Pushing myself.

3. I really wanted to make a collage of all of us girls, because we all decided, no matter where we are in life, we will still keep each other in our lives.

It's very important.
