Erwin Blumenfeld has always inspired me when it comes to fashion and portraiture. He was both exciting and new and knew exactly how to manipulate studio lights to get his desired effect. I was inspired to experiment with lighting and post production.

The background to this picture was a huge, brown door which is part of Stratford Park Museum, Stroud. I chose this backdrop because the browns looked beautiful against the models blonde hair and pale skin. The greens on the other hand, contrasts against the browns which makes the final image bold and striking.

I love this image, I was inspired by a similar outfit in a magazine. The centre of the picture was definitely the scarf, it’s vintage that I inherited from my Mum. The beautiful colours contrast against the khaki green and the rough textures of the scarf contrast against the fur on the hood.

Inspired by Rankin, this picture was influenced by fruits and colours. I love the contrast between both the yellows and the greens, both synonymous of fruits and the exotic. The sugar on the lips was also used to enhance the 'sweet' feeling to the final image.

The media is what inspired the ideas behind this photograph. Today, you can get away with murder and still be 'anonymous'. Therefore, this image shows that you can be the centre of attention, with contrasting ideas in the background, and still be anonymous to the world.

I used natural light for this picture as I was shooting in local woods. It was a bright day, therefore the sun pierced through the trees, which also caused a dabbled effect on the boots, which adds to the autumnal feel to the picture.

The idea behind this image was to highlight the different things that an animal's body parts are used for. For example, the cheese uses the stomach of a young calf to mature the cheese. Also the sweets use gelatine which is made up from animal bones. I was also inspired by the book PIG 05049 by Christien Meindertsma after my lecturer introduced me to the piece.
