The document discusses several photos taken for a fashion spread with a basketball theme to represent summer. The first photo is deemed boring due to its slanted angle. The second used a fast shutter speed to capture a model bouncing a basketball but their expression was emotionless. The third had nice natural lighting but cut off the model's shoes. The fourth asked the model to smile but it looked forced. The best photo had the model smiling widely with teeth showing to look more joyful and representative of summer while keeping both the model and basketball in focus from a low angle.

1. All of the images for this fashion spread are
very similar, however there are a few
reasoning's behind why I picked the one I did
for the fashion spread. The image is good as
the model and basketball net is in focus and
in shot, however I believe it is very boring
and the angle of which I took the photo is
quite slanted and doesn’t look good.

2. This photo is very similar to the last image,
however, I put the camera onto a fast shutter
spread and make it continuous shooting before
asking the model to begin bouncing the ball. The
action shot looks very good as the model and ball
are both still in focus, however, the facial
expression is very emotionless and boring
therefore does not represent the theme of summer
as summer is a very positive and joyful time of the
year. Additionally, I believe action shots look very
good, however, they more so represent the thing of
which is in action, e.g. the basketball represents
sport, more than the intended theme, summer.

3. I really liked this image as the natural
lighting from the sun on this day was on the
same side of the house as the images was
took. However, I was positioned to close to
the model when taking this image therefore
cutting off his trainers which means this
photo is not useable as it is important to
get all the clothing in the image as it is a
fashion spread.

4. Much like the last image, this image was
took at a time when the sun was on the
same side of the house as the basketball
net, therefore making a natural lighting
effect of which I really like which was ideal.
However, I asked the model to look
elsewhere and ensure he smiles for this
image, so the positivity of which summer
creates is represented through the image,
but I believe this smile looked forced and
unnatural, which is not ideal for the
fashion spread what so ever.

5. Therefore, I then asked the model to take
a very similar position and look to the
same direction, however this time smile
with teeth showing and I believe this
looks much better. This kind of smile is
much more joyful and represents summer
much better, additionally the slightly low
angle of which I took this on creates an
ideal distance between the model and
the basketball net which ensures I can get
them both in shot and in focus.
