Shoot 5 - 29th June
Ideas:
I wanted to try photograph more pictures with the idea of glasses and reflections. Using different colours and glasses to get some cool colourful reflections aswell. I also wanted to try to incorporate a model into this kind of shoot.
reshoot of the glass reflections
bring in a model.
I wanted to reshoot some of my previous shoots I had done so I could get more options for photos to put on my board and so I could further improve the quality of the pictures.

What worked? I really liked the colourful reflections from the glasses and how each glass had a different colour and reflection coming off it onto the white paper. The weather outside was also perfect for my shoot as it was a super nice sunny day and had great lighting. Another thing I liked was the type of glasses i used because since the bottom of the glass is quite different and has got a cool pattern going on it therefore made the reflections coming out of the glasses look real cool and interesting. I also absolutely loved the pink milk bath shoot as the colours all looked super cool and the flowers really added a lot to the pictures aswell as having the orange in there.
What didn't, how could this be improved? I wasn't too big of a fan of the backdrops i had especially for the reflection from the glasses shoot because I had to use different seperate pieces of paper and it was quite tricky to line up and do. Also for the milk bath shoot, I did this shoot in the evening so I was loosing light fast and couldn't get as good of quality for all the picture I took.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea? For my next shoot I am going to try experiment with a model and having reflections on their face/ body aswell as trying the idea of the model eating food.
Shoot 6 - 14th August
Ideas:
an idea is the pink milk bath photos done by Maisie Cousins. I thought that I could fill up a clear plastic container add milk/water and add different colours of food colouring. Then I could just chuck everything in the container like my artist model did( thats what iI get from the photo - dump random things in). I would uses flowers, fruit sprinkles etc and you can even add some dish washing liquid to the water and give it a cool foamy effect.
I also like the idea of lollipops in mouths like the photo by Anne Noble. The concept of photographing the colours left on the tongue and the up-close of the lollipop etc really appeals to me and I think that it would match into my theme really well. I would use my sister as my model aswell.

What worked? All of my objects I used in the milk bath worked well together and was a great extension for my body of work as it brings in a new idea while still being linked to the concepts of using fruits.
What didn't, how could this be improved? The lighting wasn't the best and meant that the photos didn't look at good as they would have if i took the pictures at a bright time of the day. I also wish I didn't get the container in the picture and got more close ups of the milk bath and the materials inside it.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea? For my next shoot I will probably use a different colour or a different shade of pink, do more close up pictures without showing the container and try incorporate some use of sprinkles into the pictures.

Evaluation:
What worked? I really loved this shoot. It was pretty much just a reshoot of the shoots I had already done but slightly different. My new photos inspired by Maisie Cousins turned out to look really nice and the use of sprinkles really added the extra effect to the picture. I felt that I had some good ideas going on in this shoot and using my sister to bring in some modelling was really cool and worked with my idea really well.
What didn't, how could this be improved? everything went pretty well for this shoot and I did't really have anything that didn't work to well.
What are you going to do next time to extend your idea? Next shoot I am going to try and use the sprinkles that i used in these photos to try and bring in a new idea to photograph.
Shoot 8 - 4th September
Ideas:
To take photos of a bright and colourful fruit board (similar to like a cheeseboard). this is too extend my idea more and give me more options on where my theme can go to next.
Artist models :
These are pictures that I just found off of pintrest and aren' tactually done by professional photographers. this is the kind of idea I would like to base my shoot off because I really like the idea of laying colourful fruit out on a platter board and taking pictures of it.

What worked? The sprinkles brought in the idea of the fruit platter really nicely and all looked really nice and worked well together. The daylight was perfect and all the phots were bright and really colourful.
What didn't, how could this be improved? If i wanted to improve these pictures I could add fruit and lay them out in the colours o a rainbow and i reckon that would look pretty cool.
