Concept

Red - I had to do some fast talking to get this image, but I knew I wanted her as the model. Putting this together had us both out of our comfort zones. And it worked.

If you have ever seen the walls of my home, you can just imagine how hard it was to set this up. But it helps to have people around me who want to help and can understand my photogese.

It’s definitely time to partner up with a hair and makeup artist and have some fun.

Here are the final shots from my first project in Photo 2 this semester. 

“Take your broken heart, turn it into art.”

Failure 2

For this assignment we had the choose between failures we came up with.

The first photo is about comparing yourself with others. The flowers in the mirror stand for beauty. Because most of the time you compare yourself to something or someone more beautiful (in your opinion).

The second photo is about the story of a girl in my class, who didn’t get into a dance academy. I could relate to this story because I have danced for 10 years and one time I auditioned for a show. Almost everybody in my dance class got chosen except me. I put the dancing shoes down on a mirror because in a dance studio there a mirrors everywhere. I also put some wilted leaves next to them to point out that it is was in the past.

Voor deze opdracht moesten we kiezen tussen falen die we zelf hadden bedacht.

De eerste foto gaat over jezelf met anderen vergelijken. De bloemen in de spiegel staan voor schoonheid. Omdat je vaak jezelf vergelijkt met iets of iemand dat mooier is in jouw mening.

De tweede foto gaat over een verhaal van een meisje in mijn klas. Zij werd niet toegelaten op de dansacademie. Ik kon mezelf vinden in dit verhaal omdat ik zelf heb gedanst voor 10 jaar. Een keer heb ik auditie gedaan voor een theatervoorstelling. Bijna iedereen in mijn dansklas werd gekozen behalve ik. De spitzen liggen op een spiegel omdat er overal spiegels zijn in een dansstudio. Ook heb ik verwelkte blaadjes naast de spitzen gelegd om aan te geven dat dit in het verleden was.
