Evaluation of Summer photography

This photo was taken at a close family wedding. I thought I could use it as a possible front cover or contents as it is a diverse representation and plays into David Gauntlett's "Diversity in representations" theory. I also got two comments on flickr stating that the photo captures "beautiful aspects of the culture." I took this photo to create the representation of a heartwarming female and perhaps to make he audiences empathy for her as she looks upset hence why she has her eyes closed. 

I didn't get any comments on this photo but I really like the way the henna stands out on the models hand/wrist. This also plays into David Gauntlett's diversity in representations theory. I took this photo to crate the representation of a asian lady to capitalise on the asian market and have more diversity in representations. She has her eyes closed to show the camera that she is feeling down and upset but also to show off her beautiful eye make up.

 I took this photo because I was going for a Love Island type photo and was going to use the caption "Meet the new contestant on Love Island!" This plays on the fact that Love Island is an extremely trending topic for the ages of the TA (16-25.) This could also link to Jenkins' theory on fandom. In terms of the technicality of the photograph, I really like the depth of field and how the way the model is walking matches the way they walk on Love Island. I also like the way the colour of the swimsuit is bright which matches the weather when this photo was taken, as you can see in the photo.

This photo is similar to the previous one, in the way that I took the photo with the same idea in mind as the one before. However, I do like the fact that the model is doing the exact same pose they do on Love Island when they take photos. I also think the depth of field in this photo is very good.

This photo could possibly go on my website as it has a brick wall in the background which could be an alternative representation considering the fact that the other photos are with female models and bright backgrounds. This could fit the TA as I had an idea to launch a new Peaky Blinders esque show as this plays on the social trend of Peaky Blinders right now. The low angle shot creates a representation of the boys being powerful and dangerous and the brick wall creates the representation that they are from a rough background.

This photo was taken with the thought that it would create the representation that the two models who are standing face to face are at odds with each other and the model leaning against the wall is torn as to what side he should be on.
