Photographer : Christopher Harvey

one light was used in this shot and i wanted to spot light the model between the two pillars but i didn't want to leave it with harsh light behind the figure. To do this shot ideally i need a 'snoot' but with the lack of this equipment to hand, so instead i used a worn down old beer box cellotaped to the light.

The spot light worked so well, adds a vinette that centres your eye to the model and adds a more dramtical feeling t the overall image.

The dingy worn down walls add loads of texture but also makes the model look more beautiful contrasting her to the background.

I wanted the models expression to be more extreme to the others, i wanted to make it look like she was trapped and she couldn't get out. The expressin works well but i think te expression on the previous image works alot better because the eyes seem to draw to he figure.
