1. Evaluation of my
photos
By Natalie Conneely

2. Setting and Background
 The green room was simple to set up
as well as the lightening settings
within the room and on the camera
itself.
 Located in the school’s ‘Green
Room’ itself, we had scheduled to
work within the area from 15:00pm-
16:00pm, giving my model half an
hour to get ready while the lighting
settings could be tested.

3. Photo Shoot
 Prior to the photo-shoot's prompt time to start at
15:30pm, my model Lauren McQueen had half
an hour in which she completed her hair and
make up to the description matching the model
sheet she had signed before emitting herself as
my model.
 Throughout the photo-shoot, many
pictures were taken which would
later be analyzed to see if they
were eligible to be inserted into my
magazine. Based on the quality
and influence the pictures would
have on my audience, I decided
upon four images in total for the
magazine; from the front screen,
contents page and double page
spread.

4. Lighting problems
Photos like these four were in
some ways good. For example,
each of these pictures have a
connection with the audience as
she is looking directly into the
camera. However, due to the
lighting in these pictures, trying to
photo shop these pictures
became a non completable
challenge.

5. Some other shots with
lighting problems..
The lighting does not
highlight her face in a
presentable way.
The shadow
and light
hitting her
face made it
hard to edit
this picture.
Yet again, the
lighting towards her
face creates an
orange backlight
on her skin, also
making it hard to
edit.

6. Specific Angles
 Trying to get an over the shoulder angle yet
having most of her facial features in the camera
became a challenge too.
 Finding the right angle for a picture can be
difficult for many photographers, although I do
like the way these photos were produced as an
end product as I achieved my aim – an over the
shoulder shot with her facial features intact.

7. Conclusion
 To conclude, I would say on a whole, my photo-shoot
turned out to be a success as I achieved my four images I
needed for my magazine. Plus some remaining ones that
could have been put inside if the original ideas of them
were not up to my liking.
 Although some photos that I found to be quite good in
the end result did not make the end cut due to the
contrast in colours. This seemed the be the main problem
throughout my photo-shoot, as the lighting of the camera
did not cooperate to the description I had hoped for.
 If I was to do the photo-shoot again there are some things
I would suggest I would do in order to improve, for
instance, I would adjust the lighting in many different ways
to see the end result of the many pictures I took. I would
also add a few more props, camera angles and costumes
to the photo-shoot to give myself a variety of photos to
choice from.
