Fashion photography -
These are the kind of images I'm really interested in. I love to look at them anyway, and I am going to attempt similar style images of my own, however I know this will be a challenge to me with being new to studio photography. Here's some images I've picked out which I find most interesting, inspiring and most related to our project of 'Studio Portraits.'

After some experimentation in the studio with my other class member's, the photos that we have been producing so far all have a grey coloured background like this image. I don't personally like the look of a grey background and do not wish or envision my own images to have a grey coloured background, however, this has got to be the first studio portrait I've found with a grey background which i really like! I like the expression on the models face and her whole look. I like the way the background progresses from a very dark grey at the top of the image down to a much lighter grey around the models shoulders. This moody grey background really suits the style and look of the model. I think this could well be something fairly important to think about in my own images.. suiting the background to the theme of the shoot.

What attracts me to this image is the warm tone throughout.

I like the detail in the models eyes here. I am drawn to the eyes of the model when looking at the image. I've chosen this image as i feel it is simple and possibly something i could successfully re-create myself.

These two images are a bit more edgy than what I would expect to be producing at this stage however I've chosen the images because I like the more unusual poses that the model is creating. Also linking to the first image in this blog post, I like the slouchy look the models have got going on; little expression in their faces, untidy hair, plain clothing, slouchy'effortless poses.
