Shimmer
Well, this photoshoot was an absolute flop.
I had such high expectations of this one, I thought it would end up being the most featured in my book/magazine. But oh no, absolutely not it is not good.
The lighting, absolutely not.. the copper leaf, absolutely not..
It all just looks a little bit amateur, and the way the copper leaf appears when painted on skin is not what I wanted.
I think the brushstrokes were too thick and did need to be thinner looking back the photographs. The shimmer that the copper leaf created gave a delicate finish however everything else was just wrong.
This was the only photo in the end that I decided I would use as my final work as I did want to include at least something from this shoot as the concept I felt was quite strong for what I wanted to portray.
While taking photos with the copper leaf I did also take some general just nude photographs which were intended for illustration purposes however I ended up finding them stronger photographs than the actual planned photographs!
