Image 1:

This image is a close up of a black haired model, which is wearing a hooded cape. She is holding it, as if to prevent it from falling in the wind. She is looking up, in her eyes you can see the light which suggests either a backdrop of high location lighting. There is a stereotypical outfit, of a red cape and white dress, which inspires me to think about the colours of my models outfit. This may be the same or red and black dress. If I used a black dress, the model would look more gothic and give the image a darker feel.

There is a fast shutter speed and a narrow depth of field, which focuses the viewer onto the model. I really like the distance in the image, however I want my image to show more than the outfit, so may use a full body shot or have the model further away.

Image 2:

This image is far away from the model, which suggests she is small compared to the world. The high trees also add to this effect and make the model seem trapped. The model looks like she is running, which inspires me. This adds to the story behind the image and makes the viewer curious. It makes me want to imagine the wolf chasing her. In the image, the main red and white first captures the viewers attention, you almost don’t realise it’s a person until you look again.
