If you're lucky I may even start regularly updating this blog shoot by shoot, but lets not hold out too much hope for that.<br />
<br />
Anyway, last Saturday I did a shoot with a rather large team; models Joely Osben and Rayna Terror, MUA Alice Bizarre, make up artist & hair stylist Yuya, and shooting a latex item by Rubber Monkey Latex. It was also my first proper shoot outdoors with my new flashgun, so although that provided a fair few problems I think the results turned out pretty good. It was much more of an impromptu shoot than i'm used to, due to Alice only being in London briefly, and for that reason was a lot less serious and conceptually driven than what i'm used to shooting, but regardless it was a lot of fun! My team were all lovely and I enjoyed working with all of them.<br />

<br />
The shoot I was supposed to have this morning got postponed, so i've spent the day doodling and generally not being very productive, when I remembered that I maybe should try to update this more regularly. So have some stuff about my recent shoots!<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
The lovely Serenity Divine was in London for a brief period, so we planned a shoot with the wonderfully talented Mathilda Lansdown and Mary of Manaka Accessories, and were also joined by Denise and her daughter. It was at the start of that mini heatwave sort of thing we had, and I didn't have the sense to bring suncream because hey, its England, its never sunny over here! And as a result I ended up getting fairly burnt. Ah well, the photos turned out well I think so thats got to make the burn worthwhile.<br />

Then I had a sort of modern-renaissance-esque shoot using the beautiful designs of Mariyana Designer, who is in Beijing at the moment and was unable to join us, but sent along her lovely friend Aisha who shot some behind the scenes film images which i'm really excited to see! We were joined by Aemelia Edwards, her boyfriend Lyle who showed us some fantastic locations (which were a bit of a trek but totally worth it), and Becky Lingham. Fantastic team, lovely weather and a great location made for some really good photos from this one I think! </div>

Another shoot from a while back was one loosely inspired by Ophelia from Hamlet, with Emily Granzow and Tabby Casto, using a lovely headpiece created by the exceedingly talented Amore de Mori. Weather was not on our side for this one so it was a brief and cold shoot, it would have been much nicer to have more time and better conditions to shoot some of the more exciting stuff we had in mind, but ah well. </div>

Among these shoots, I started a project i'd sort-of been planning for a while now with a team of lovely MUA's called '<b>Boost! Photoshoots</b>' (you can check out our facebook page <a href="http://www.facebook.com/boostphotoshoots" target="_blank">here</a>), offering confidence-building photoshoots where the client has their make up done and photo taken with particular attention paid to their personal sense of style, interests, and character, creating some images which aim to bring out their true personality and make them feel a little bit better about themselves. I'd done some shoots for this already, which seem to have had some pretty good feedback so far, so fingers crossed that will go somewhere as its something i'd really like to push over the summer, so heres hoping more people take an interest in it! In the meantime, if you want to book a shoot or have any enquiries, please message us on the facebook group or send an email to boostenquiries@gmail.com :) </div>

Anyway, thats all for now folks! I've got a few personal shoots as well as some commissions over the next few weeks, so hopefully that should continue to keep me too busy to update this blog :) </div>Charlottehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07741824921669682206noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602404583024948456.post-68363351669683596302012-05-03T03:32:00.004-07:002012-05-03T03:37:22.432-07:00So i'm not dead!But I am pretty bad at updating this, whoops. Things have been pretty hectic photography wise, and i've been trying to work around this horrible British weather so i'm way behind my personal schedule, but its getting there now that we're having the occasional dry day.<br />
<br />
I decided to stick with my 'Heroes, Villains, and the ones in-between' project for my final project of the academic year, so i've done a few more shoots based around that:<br />

And some self portraits, because apparently I don't have enough shoots to be doing and I get bored pretty easily. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a shoot on Tuesday and Wednesday, and I have another one tomorrow and then the last one for this project next Tuesday. So busy busy busy! Luckily I managed to get my Photography, Film & Screen essay done a fair few days early so thats one less thing for me to think about and I can concentrate on getting all of this post-processing done in time for me to get it sent off to the printers. Heres hoping it all works out! </div>Charlottehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07741824921669682206noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602404583024948456.post-48666618367199416122012-02-28T12:44:00.000-08:002012-02-28T12:44:18.061-08:00Heroes, Villains, and the Ones In-between.Been a bit dead with the posts on here - whoops!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Video is nowhere near perfect, but I was having so many issues with it that I just got sick of it in the end and left it at that. I'm still not as happy as I wish I was with the photos, but there you go. Had I had more time and had to rush less, perhaps things would be different. Hey ho, all part of the learning process I guess! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I've got a portrait shoot with <a href="http://www.youtube.com/CaptainChristel" target="_blank">Christel</a> this weekend, then i'm modelling for <a href="http://www.eblis-images.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">Maddie</a>, which ultimately was a decision I will probably regret when it comes down to it, but i'm hoping she'll make me look nothing like me so fingers crossed! I'm also in the process of planning a shoot for mid next week so touch wood that will all work out. </div>Charlottehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07741824921669682206noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602404583024948456.post-39379220002267993192012-01-15T08:04:00.000-08:002012-01-15T08:04:18.446-08:00LensbabySo my lensbaby finally arrived a few days ago, happiness! I've done two shoots with it and my new camera now, so i've been pretty busy shooting/editing etc.<br />
<br />
First of all was a shoot i've been arranging for a while ago now; I originally planned on shooting it around a year ago, but it fell through so now i've finally done it. In all honesty, i'm not totally in love with the photos; it took a long time to get my camera settings to the level I was satisfied with to get what I wanted, we had to work very quickly and quietly, and just in general as fun as it was, I don't feel like I shot it at the level I wanted to, and there was so much that I forgot to shoot because of time constraints. Anyway, heres a little preview, and one of the only really decent images from the shoot:<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I'm far more satisfied with the video I shot than the actual photos, neither of which are online yet. I want to hang fire on showing the photos as I feel they work well with the video, but i'm having a few issues with the video glitching so watch this space. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In slightly more exciting news, I did a shoot with Katie yesterday that went far better, mainly because it was a lot less experimental and I just got to shoot without any major pressure. And who couldn't photograph this lady in an interesting way?

I'm now the proud owner of a Canon 600D, Coop 3.0, and although I haven't had the chance to properly shoot with it yet, I took it out yesterday evening to a new years party just to give it a shot. The video is pretty great, and i'm really excited to start shooting in motion as well as just taking photos.<br />
<br />
Anywho, here are a few photos I took today whilst messing around with my tripod and remote timer.<br />

Happy new year folks!Charlottehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07741824921669682206noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602404583024948456.post-52030463279445051692011-12-27T16:17:00.000-08:002011-12-27T16:26:48.029-08:00New camera on the way!So I finally got around to ordering an upgrade the other day; i'm saying goodbye to my trusty Canon 450D and hello to the Canon 600D. Not a major jump, because I really can't justify (or afford!) anything crazy up market, but I wanted something a little more updated anyway, and i'm now interested in giving video a shot, and this camera allows that, so i'm really excited to see what thats like!<br />
<br />
Thats all for now folks, i'll update with some photos once it's arrived. In the meantime, have a bit of a rubbish self portrait that I took whilst testing out my new remote timer. Thankfully, I now also have a tripod - this was taken with the camera balancing on the sofa, not the most ideal of set ups. Merry christmas everyone!<br />

Instead, I first want to talk a little bit about something thats been on my mind lately, and certainly is a controversial topic among the photographic genre.<br />
<br />
It's no secret that I use photoshop within my work and as a key part of my work, and its something i've never been ashamed to admit to. Just like everyone, I have the things I am happy to do in photoshop, changes I feel I am willing to make that I personally think will enhance the image, and of course, lines I would choose myself not to cross. There's been the big debate about the importance of photoshop for many years now, about its impact on the look of a photograph, about its connotations with image and body perception, and so on. I've always been an avid supporter of saying no to extreme image enhancement and manipulation - changing the shape of a face, making someone thinner, and so on, its not for me. There are things that I personally have no qualms doing to the face of a model, or the scene of an image, and i'm going to go into a little depth about them now and explain my reasonings.<br />
<br />
First of all, colour. Colour is an important aspect of my work; in my mind I usually have a very clear and specific idea of how I want the colours to appear, and usually they're not something very reminiscent of real life. I'm okay with this, and I have no issues with enhancing or playing around with the colours in an image to get the desired mood i'm after. Second of all, lighting and contrast. It's not always possible to get the best results on-camera, whether it be poor lighting, bad weather, or just deciding it needs a little extra brightness when you see the image on screen for the first time. I'm also a big fan of darkness, of heavy areas of black, and my personal ideals in this area, at present, aren't something I can perfectly replicate straight onto he camera in most situations. With all of the above, I feel they're minor necessities to my own work - to me, the above are the equivalent of say, adding contrast or using filters in a darkroom. It's meddling with what you already have to get the desired effect. Sure, its great to get exactly what you want on camera immediately, but sometimes, this isn't always the case.<br />
<br />
As for the appearance of the model, I have things I will and won't do. I'm happy to enhance what is already there, or bring out more detail in an image if I choose to do so. Dodging into the pupils of the eyes, deepening the definition of wrinkles by burning into them, and so on. To me, enhancing what is already there is again, something I have no issues with. I'm also happy to do a minimal amount of facial retouching on my work, a touchy subject, but again, something I like to think I don't overdo. My personal line is that I only feel comfortable altering things that are temporary or due to circumstance - we all get spots on our worst days for example, they're not permanent, and I find them distracting in an image. Removing, or at least making less prominent, bags under the eyes, editing out a loose eyelash hair or a stray strand of hair working its way across the face...things of circumstance, not permanent facial features. As I said earlier, i'm not happy to change the shape of a face, the weight of a model, and so on. I'm also, for what its worth, far to lazy to do proper and full retouching anyway, so the stuff I do generally keeps to a minimum.<br />
<br />
Thats generally as far as I go with photoshop. I don't spend hours on each image, I spend on average around 10-15 mins tops on each image, sometimes less, sometimes more, depending on what i'm trying to achieve. And for what its worth, I enjoy editing. To me, its a crucial process in my work, and at times I enjoy it almost as much as the photo-taking itself. To me, making an image i'm happy with perfectly as I imagine it to look, or wish it to look, is exactly what I love about photography.<br />
<br />
Now, some of you may know that I recently started on a BA Photography degree, which for what its worth, I am very much enjoying. I like the freedom and creativity it allows, I like the debate, and the strong variety of work presented by my fellow classmates. I find it inspiring to see how differently people go about their practises, and I find the results are usually pretty amazing. Now, back to that idea of debate; the varying opinions of people on my course is something I do love, but there is something i've started to notice, and it's the reason i'm writing this post in the first place. The simple fact is, a lot of my classmates hate photoshop. Despise it even. They dislike what it stands for, what it creates, and so on. Others are indifferent, and others will use it on occasion. There are a lot of hardcore film fanatics on my course, which is fab, as it is an area I'm hoping to play around with more in the future, but there are a lot of people in love with the idea of 'the perfect image', and the idea of a photo being finished from the moment the shutter is pressed. Which is cool, really. But i've had a little bit of backlash from my use of photoshop. Not so much backlash, in reality thats too strong a word for it, but at least its been a cause for debate, and one of the things people often comment on in my work. Some have told me that they love the way I use photoshop to make colours in my work, others have criticised the way I use things such as dodging and burning to make an image more defined.<br />
<br />
It's an odd thing, really. I always presumed people wouldn't have much to say about my images as far as the post-processing is concerned. I didn't think I did anything particularly controversial in my post-processing, but perhaps I was wrong. To give an example, my recent project, 'Do I Know You?', looking at faces, involves a lot of post-processing, as I said earlier, due to wanting to bring out more details. To give a little context, here are some of the images.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>Example number one - the image on the left is the first photo I took for this project, and essentially it's the type of post-processed look I was after; as I said earlier, making colours more prominent and making facial details more defined.<br />

</tbody></table>Example two is another image from this project, but unlike the first image, the vast majority of the facial definition was achieved on camera, by great lighting, a slightly above-the-model angle, and a reflector placed underneath the face and angled upwards to catch the light.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">One of a series of street portraits, by Lasse Damgaard</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Now, to give further context - these two photographers were my key influences for this project, and my reasons for my choices of post-processing. I love the detail captured in <a href="http://nullermanden.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">Lasse Damgaard's</a> work, and the overall atmosphere and beauty captured in <a href="http://dannyst.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">Danny Santos</a>' images. Both photographers worth checking out if you're not familiar with their works.<br />
<br />
My point is, I personally felt that the post-processing I did was necessary to what I wanted to achieve, and something I was happy to do in order to produce the sort of outcome I was after. In the photography world, there seems to be this general snobbery about the use of photoshop on images, and this general attitude that you're a better photographer or even, a more morally-rounded person if the final image we see is exactly what came straight out of the camera. To me, using photoshop is just a extension of the skills many photographers already have; we have a vision and an idea, and photoshop allows us to produce that in our images, just in the same way that film photographers alter contrast, use filters, dodging and burning in their images to produce a desired effect. I personally think it's no different - like darkroom, its just another tool used to produce amazing images. And I am happy to use it in my work. It doesn't make me better or worse than anyone else; it doesn't make me a fake or a fraud because I enhance my images in one way or another after the photos are taken, and I and others certainly don't deserve to be looked down upon in the photographic community because of it. Some things just can't be achieved to perfection in reality, and a little post-processing and editing can really go a long way and make great image sensational.<br />
<br />
Thats my two cents anyway. What do you guys think?<br />

</tbody></table>Now, onto other topics! My shoot yesterday with Joshua was pretty fun; I was glad to finally get out and get shooting again after multiple cancellations over the past number of months meaning that I haven't been taking as many photos as I usually like to. There was no strict idea behind the shoot, just to go out, and take some photos. I've had a bit of an artists slump lately in terms of ideas, so for now i'm going to just keep the creative juices flowing as much as I can by shooting continually and trying to get some ideas in the process that are a bit more than just taking photos of someones face. Anyway, it was a great shoot, and it was nice to get back into the swing of things. Anyway, this is a preview of whats to come! (see left)<br />
<br />
Thats all for now folks, i'll post again when I have some more photos :D</div>Charlottehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07741824921669682206noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602404583024948456.post-5962934399763765622011-12-02T10:58:00.000-08:002011-12-02T10:58:12.188-08:00Start.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hi folks,</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I figured I needed a place where i'm more consistent in updating my photography; this used to be deviantart but my love for DA has withered and died over the past few years and I find it a struggle to really keep myself on track there. Flickr has always been a bit of a chore to me, and although I do regularly update my facebook page, theres not an awful lot I can really say on there. So I figured i'd have a fresh start and update my work via a blog (seeing as this is the trendy thing to do these days) so I can talk about my work and the stuff that inspires me as I post it online, to give a little more context to my work. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So hello world! To those not yet familiar with me and my work, i'm a photography student who has just started a BA in Photography at Kingston University, London, which i'm enjoying quite a lot in all honesty. The degree gives me the freedom to do my own thing, which is exactly what I am after. My photographic work generally focuses on the weird and cinematic; i'm a big fan of David Lynch (Twin Peaks in particular), and i'm much more into film than I am photographers, so most of my inspiration comes from movies, which I guess is a little odd for a photography student, but hey ho. I'm interested in creating work with a narrative, or work that shows character and personality. Fashion doesn't really interest me on its own, although i've been told my work often has a fashion-esque look to it. I'm trying to broaden my work as well as refine it - I want to try new things but at the same time define for myself a more definitive style, because I don't really feel like I quite have that yet. I'm half way to making my work truly 'my own' and I strive to get to that space sooner rather than later. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anywho, this is just a brief introduction. I'll start posting some work up here pretty soon (as in, this evening, as i'm procrastinating pretty badly right now) to get the ball rolling a bit. Half of the reason i'm making this blog in the first place is for feedback, so feedback would be very much appreciated when I start uploading properly - cheers! </span><br />
