Portrait, attempt 2.

After the workshop, I decided I had to re-visit the jewellery workshop in London to capturing a more emotive and powerful portrait of Mark. On the train on the way up there I was jotting down any ideas/ poses I could think of that would capture this decisive shot that I was looking for. Below are a few of the ideas I noted down;

  • Slumped shots, face leaning against hand- Creating a sense of run down, tiredness of work etc.
  • Crazy shots- Hands in hair, strange facial poses- Capturing the quirky personality.
  • Wearing the old fashioned magnifying glasses. Authenticity / professionalism
  • Facial close up, looking down the barrel of the gun with just one eye as if he was closely examine a fine piece jewellery.
  • Similar to above but looking through a small magnifying glass.
These were the basis of my ideas that i would wish to experiment with and capture, whilst hoping more would come to mind when the camera was in hand.
