Week 9 - Medusa shoot

15th March


Today is the first day of my shoots for my book!! I have started with Medusa as I had finished her design first and I am pleased with the results!!


I started by meeting the model at 9 this morning and then prepared her for the shoot. I primed her skin and made sure her eyebrows were ready for the shoot as they are a prominent feature in this look. I then applied the make-up which took about 2 hours and then did the hair, which took about an hour. We were ready to shoot by about half 12 which worked well as Tom had to be finished by 3 so we had plenty of time to try lots of looks out, and we did not have to rush.


Throughout the shoot we went through different lighting effects and composition of the model. As well as a mixture of close ups, portraits and landscape images. I am pleased with how the pictures look on screen but I cant wait to see them edited and printed. 


Tom is hoping to get the pictures back to me within about 2 weeks, so in the meantime I'm going to carry on with my designs and book writing! I'm so excited to see them completed!


I am happy with the way it has gone today and I hope my next 7 shoots are just as successful becuase this has been enjoyable and I have learnt a lot about working with other people.


I have got my next shoot with Tom tomorrow for my 'Basilisk' shoot and I have it planned and tested so tomorrow should hopefully run smoothly. I am hoping to go for the same times as today and finish by 3!


Speak soon :)
