Planning Final Piece (Photoshoot)

As our final piece had to obviously be about our self and identity, I wanted to explore the fact that I come from a big family and that I'm a very family orientated person.

To help get some ideas I did a mind map:

Doing a mind map helped me with my moodboards:

With Hair & Make up I wanted to keep it simple, I wanted the long hair to be out as I have long hair

Location- I thought since the theme was on family, theres no better location than home, So I wanted key pieces that would represent a home for e.g. sofa, cushions, chandelier, stairs

Mood/lighting - As it was supposed to represent a warm and calm family atmosphere I wanted the lighting to be indoor lighting, I like the idea of it looking yellow almost gold to give a sense of warmth.

Poses-  as I wanted to show what she is wearing if she was me but not a long shot. A mid long shot would be able to convey it well.

Styling- In terms of styling I wanted the model to wear my clothes, I'm a big fan of formal wear, so would style her in a shirt, formal trousers, or plain clothing as its supposed to reflect me and I keep it simple.
