Terry Richardson Inspired Photos.

Here are four of my photos (before and after) that took in the studio with my model Jess trying to re-create some of Terry Richardson's well known work. 

I think that they turned out quite alright...

This is the image that I was aiming to re-create, but in my own style. The main reason I chose to re-create this image was because I thought the pose was really strong, especially with the eye contact being made, it really drags you in to the image.

Out of all the photos I took in the studio trying to re-create the image above, this one was the best. When looking back though I realised that my main mistake with this image was that I took it portrait instead of landscape. Overall I am pleased with how it turned out. 

This is my finished image after editing and I'd like think I put quite a classy twist on Terry's image. I am pleased with the finished result of this image, I made the image look quite faded and used a colour tint of white to make it seem like there was some age behind the image, to suit the style of the model Jess, as she is dressed 50's inspired.

This is the second of Terry's images that I have tried to re-create. When I researching and I saw this image the model automatically reminded me of Jess, I think they look quite similar, so I thought I need to try and re-create this!

This is the strongest image I took in the studio, out of all the ones for re-creating the image above. I really like the way that although they are completely different outfits, because they are both black and white they automatically look more similar. 

After editing this image I am pleased with how it turned out. Once again I made the image look a bit vintage, but I have edited all the images in this style so they are all a matching series. I didn't really manage to get the shadowing around the edge of the image like Terry.

I chose to recreate this image because once again I thought the pose was really strong and empowering, I want my images to be able to give off this impression.   

Out of all the images that I took for this image, I thought that the pose Jess is making in this image was the most similar out of all the images. (Apart from the doesn't have a clutch bag to hold on to.) I also like how the model in the image is wearing black on red lipstick and that Jess is too. 

When cropping this image I should have zoomed in more, so there was just a thin border around the edge of Jess, instead of a large amount of space. As you can see I also had to flip this image to make Jess be facing the same was as the model in the original image. 

This is the last off all the Terry Richardson images that I tried to re-create. I chose to re-create this image because I thought the facial expression in this image was so strong. The image shows really clear emotion,I thought this would fit well into my assignment as I am doing 'eXpressions'  

Out of all the images for this pose that I took, this one is my favourite. I really like the eye contact that Jess is making. I know that I didn't zoom in  enough to be the same as the other image when taking this, but I prefer it more zoomed out.

When editing this image I didn't really feel the need to do a lot. I simply flipped the image so Jess' face was facing the same way as the models in the original image and then just the same as the other images to make the photo seem vintage.
