The document discusses the author's chosen genre of fashion photography. They are interested in fashion as they enjoy experimenting with different styles of hair, makeup, and clothing. While they have not worked in this genre before, their interest in fashion styles makes it a good fit. The document discusses three artists - Ross Kirton, Marco Tenelia, and Alec Soth - that have influenced the author's work. Kirton and Tenelia focus on portraying different attitudes through clothing and using black and white allows seeing more emotion. Soth depicts older subjects and natural settings that don't match expensive outfits. For their first image, a prom dress, the author was inspired by Kirton's focus on outfits and Tenelia's use

1. My chosen genre:
FASHION

2. Why?
• I am interested in fashion photography as I
think a lot about appearance. I like look at and
experiment with different hair styles and
different looks using make-up and clothes.
• I haven’t done this kind of genre before, but
because I like different styles I thought this
would be a good idea considering I am very
interested in this type of industry.

3. Artists that have influenced me
• Ross Kirton
Ross’s imagery focuses mainly on he women's clothing, This can show different
attitudes and styles of each women in the image, For example the women on the right
looks quite rich and wealthy.
Marco Tenelia
Marco’s imagery is in black and white only, I like the idea of this because I think black
and white allows you to look deeper into the image and see more emotion. Marco
also uses opposite backgrounds to the women's outfits, for example having a white
background with the women in black could mean she is quite dark and evil, however if
the women is wearing white she may come across as innocent.

4. Alec Soth
• Alec Soth looks more at older people, rather than
young teens. In one of alec’s images he has taken
a picture of a women who looks quite wealthy
and is wearing a nice expensive outfit, and also
has her hair pinned up nice, however when you
look deeper into the image the background
doesn’t look that nice.
• Alec also makes his images look quite normal and
natural, for example he has taken a picture of a
women getting out of a car.

5. Images I have taken
For my image of the prom dress I have been inspired by Ross
Kirton as he looks a lot at the models outfit, I am also using
black and white like the artist Marco Tenelia.
I will now look at some more artists to think of more ideas,
Emily said I should get the model to do more abstract poses so I
will also start to think off different posses my model can do.
