During this session, we looked at the idea of having an image within another image and in order to do this, we used picture frames - this really emphasised the fact that there was two images in one photograph. I found this shoot extremely fun as the ways of showing this theme were endless, however, a lot of thinking and organising was required so that this would be a successful session. I like how my photographs turned out even though I faced the issue of finding the correct angles for each of my pictures; I wanted my pictures to look very exciting and I figured that the best way to do this was to use a variety of angles for my photographs, which would highlight my subject and the different images in a picture. The easiest way to overcome this was to experiment with the different angles; for each picture, I moved the camera around and picked the best angle for the picture. I found that I could blend the images together like in the picture below and by doing this, I am showing the viewer that my subject is comfortable with her surroundings and adapts to it well. To show contrast, I chose a green background, as my subject is wearing all black. This goes against the idea of my subject blending into the background, creating conflict.
In this picture, I tried to focus more on the picture in the frame and I found that by cropping my subject out of the main image, I was able to get the viewer to concentrate on the picture in the frame. I also placed the frame in the middle of the picture to give it all the attention. I cloned my subject to make it seem like although the scene is the same in both image, there is something different in each image.
I think that the backgrounds in my photographs are too similar; I should have changed them up and added variety to it. If I could do this session again, I would change the background and the frames in order to add diversity and change it up a bit.
