Emulation Plan

I have chosen three fashion photography shoots, which I intend to emulate...

This shot, taken by Jürgen Teller, involves model Kate Moss raising one eyebrow and glancing to the right, with her tongue pushing onto her teeth. Her body language and facial expression suggests that there is a sense of aggression but also power. Her hands are also placed on her hips, tilting; suggesting femininity and confidence. The use of the colour red has been used on her lips and her leotard. The colour red suggests love but also danger, hence why she is positioned like that.  The background is just black and herself is very bright, enabling her to be the centre of attention. For my photo I intend to emulate, I will incorporate these features into it. The equipment I will need in order for this shoot to be successful will be: A girl model, Red top, Red lipstick, lighting and the camera.

This shot taken by Erwin Blumenfield, again involves a woman as the main feature. This time the woman is positioned looking down about to light up a cigarette, elegantly clutching her scarf around her collarbones. The shot has been taken in black and white, giving the picture depth of different tones and textures allowing it to really stand out. Her makeup and hair is very typical vintage too. The background has been blurred out so that she is the main attention. For my photo I intend to emulate, I will incorporate these features I have previously mentioned. The equipment I will need for this shoot are: A girl model, makeup, camera, cigarette and scarf.  

This shot taken by Frederick Sommer is a very different approach to the previous two photos I have selected. This time, the shoot involves a little girl, standing positioned with her hands together against an old weathered backdrop. The little girl is perceived to be innocent as she is wearing a white dress and her hair in plaits implying purity and goodness, yet her eyes convey a mysterious look about them. To a degree, the girls hair and arms cleverly blend into the foreground . The colour is in black and white making it look simplistic and natural. For my own photo I intend to emulate, I will incorporate these features. The equipment I will need for this shoot: A child, a white dress, trees foreground.
