Today I started production on my project. I intended to just photograph my first model Jeremy, but due to it not taking as long as expected to photograph him, I got my second model Ashleigh photographed too- which I was really pleased about! Here are some of the photographs taken by my friend Abbie:
So far, I'm really happy with how the photos turned out. I'm feeling really positive about the project, as I was worried it would take too long to photograph people and apply the makeup, but now I know that I can get two people done within 2 hours, I think that on my next shooting day, if I can find more models, then I can have more sets of photos. My only concern with having more models is the price of printing the images. I suppose I can print them off on the printer in the library and then laminate them, but this will still be quite a long process. I may just make videos of some of the photographs if I can't get them all printed, and then I will post them on various social media platforms. I know for definite though that I will be printing off at least 3 sets of photographs. Ideally, I would have liked to have had them printed really large, but I simply can't afford it, but they should look quite good even if they are just A4 sized.
Below are the actual photos I took today. I will begin editing the first two sets of photos in Photoshop on Thursday. I was planning to get all the photos and then do the Photoshop, but it makes more sense to edit them as I go along, as this will make better use of my time. I also don't know how long it will take to edit them, so I'd rather have them edited too soon, rather than too late.

I'm happy with how these photos look, but they seem to be lacking some dimension which I am certain I can achieve by touching them up in Photoshop. Things I will touch up in Photoshop are things such as making the colouring of the bruising more vibrant.
