This mind map shows photoshoot 1 and 2 planning and production. I am going do more mind maps each time i do another few photoshoots.
---------------
Photoshoot - #1
DATE - Friday 24th October 2014
SETTING - models backgarden MIDNIGHT
LIGHTING - backgarden light, artifial.
PROPS - A lot of tissue paper
CLOTHING IDEAS - Soft white party dress and white high heels
MAKEUP - Natural clubbing, night out make up
HAIR - straightened and soft
IDEAS - Wrap the tissue paper around somewhere big and wrap all the tissue paper around the model so that the model is beautiful and soft looking. Selling the dress and heels for the catologue so thats the fashion accessories. Use a female model to make the photoshoot look soft and beautiful, to attract customers for the catologue. Use some flash and some without to capture the "Whiteness" of my desired look.
WHAT I DID - Tied the tissue paper around a washing line and wrapped it up with x4 large tissue paper rolls, to create a big, soft, messy white look. Then I got my model to pose and stand inbetween the tissue while the wind was blowing, which helped the tissue fly swiftly and to show movement. Then I got my model to change dress;
CLOTHING - Black and white stripped dress with black and white heels.
HAIR - Messy
Then I told the model to continue posing while I shot many photos of the scene. Then, I finally got the model to re-do a more fashion looking natural make up
MAKE UP - glammed fashion model look
Then I pulled all the tissue of the washing line and tied it around my model to appear as a dress. I made her pose in it and I got some fantastic shots looking like a catologue. I edited the photos on Ribbet.com and I was happy with the end results.

Photoshoot - #2
DATE - Sunday 26th October 2014
SETTING - white Bathroom
LIGHTING - two small artifical bulbed lights
PROPS - aftershave bottles, bathroom objects
IDEAS
- Place the bottles in different positions untill I find a decent set of photo's to work with. Use different lighting techniques to help find desired effect.
WHAT
I DID - I placed the bottles on the white shelf. Then I turned on the shower on a cold setting, otherwise my camera would of been steamed up. Then I took the photos of the bottles while the water ran down it. I tried some slow shutter, but found that on a faster shutter was just better. I then took some photos of bathroom two bathroom products and made it look like they where for sale. I then edited all the photos on Ribbet.com.
UPDATE - I didnt use the bathroom photoshoot idea because the catalogue is Fashion and Fashion Accessories.

Photoshoot - #3
DATE - Monday 27th October 2014
SETTING - Bedroom studio setup
LIGHTING -exsposure from outside windows, taken next to the windows.
PROPS - fake gun (not for sale in catalogue), black headpeice, eyelashes, wig.
IDEAS
- Cover the model in dirt and oil, make them look tierd and worn out like Lara Croft, Tomb Raider, for inspiration. Use lady gaga album photography as inspiration, im going to use Alejandro photoshoot for ideas. Get the model also to do pose in a big fur coat and pose like a Marliyn Monroe.
WHAT
I DID -I got my model to cover themself in dirt and I applied oil over the face to look like sweat. I made them wear a white tshirt with holes in that look good enough for exerice like Tomb Raider. Then they wore shorts and a fake gun and I told the model to act tierd of fighting and climbing and shot the images. I put them together on Ribbet for a better effect. I then told them to put on a fur coat and throw her head into a crouched, hidden position to make the hair look a little movement looking. Also then I applied a cross process effect to make it look more vintage and fashionable. On the Lady Gaga inspired shoot, I styled the models hair and makeup to look similar to lady gagas photographs, I then smudged makeup down their face and told them to recreate her images that I showed the model for inspiration. I edited them on Picnik.com

Photoshoot - #4
DATE - Wednesday 29th October 2014
SETTING - Living room, Studio photography
LIGHTING - Living room lights.
PROPS - Umbrella, England Flag, Frog hat, Babys blanket
IDEAS
- Get my gradmother to hold an umbrella and pose while I take some decent images. Photograph my nephew in the frog hat that I purchased from Ebay two days ago. I can surround him in blankets to get a more baby effect. Also put the england flag on the floor on my rug and lay the baby on the middle of the flag, dressed dapper.
WHAT
I DID - I placed the baby blankets on the bed and placed my nephew on there. While he was wiggling around I photographed him in his frog hat, I liked the finished shot of when he covered his one eye and looked at the camera directly with the other. He looked cute so I went on to do the England theme photoshoot. Then I placed the baby on the England flag on the rug while he had a change of clothes. I shot him in sporty, cute, fashionable tracksuit for the catalogue. I then photographed my grandmother holding a geisha umbrella that I purchased from a market. She wore nice wooly clothes, and I brushed her hair over. I shot the image from the front vantage point to get her portrait. I airbrushed the image on Picnik.com and used the Bloom effect. I liked the end results.
