Final photographs

I have chosen my final photos for my final piece and have edited them further. I have added American Apparel quotes to provide a advertisement feel and some quotes from different people from the 20's and today. I have had them printed in a brown paper journal in order to make them look like they are in a book from the past but inside, include photos that look like adverts from today's time. I am very happy with the final outcome as they are how I pictured them to be. I wanted to create a selection of photographs that displayed women in today's society but involve feminism from the 20's and current fashion brands. I added the quotes 'I want to throw a party where there's a brawl and seductions' F. Scott Fitzgerald and 'It's out of balance, and that's why young people haven't embraced feminism, because it's out of balance' Dov Charney. I done this because I wanted to contrast the different lives and allow viewers
to have an insight into the two times and what fashion means to women. I am pleased that I didn't 
take grand, dramatic photos as the less included in mine, the stronger they are (both visual and the
 point of them). One of the main aspects of the photographs I hoped would be the strongest part 
were the colours and I feel they are. The contrast and brightness are balanced and the setting 
increases this as it is simply white. Using only a model and no props may have been a bad choice as I
had to rely on the person and the photographs might have been dull, but I'm happy I chose to do this
 as It focuses more on the theme and photography. Although I was unsure about the result, they
 are how I pictured them to look.
