Contact Sheets



As you can see I took quite a vast range of photos before I took the ones that I finally decided on. I think this is partly down to my uncertainty as to exactly how I wanted Megan to stand or look so the best thing was just to experiment and try out plenty of ideas- no matter how ridiculous they may be. I even drew black eyebrows on her at one point. I enjoy playing around with make-up because it can make a photograph so much more exciting.

If you look at the photo of Megan on the contents page:
You can see that I drew on exaggerated bottom eyelashes to give the photo a little life. This is reminiscent of Twiggy in the late 60's (yet slightly more extreme) and I think it opens her eyes more.
