Manipulating photoshoot!

Photoshoot: Richard Avedons Marilyn Monroe

My inspiration for my photoshoot was Richard Avedons Marilyn Monroe portraits. I wanted to re- create these portraits but change them and make them my own style.

I used a staged shoot where i set up lighting to set a sensual seductive type mood. I used a room with a plain white background where i could change the setting as i liked. I picked the colour red as a theme throughout the shoot as i feel it is a classy yet seductive colour that would suit marilyn monroes personality.

I found a costume that was suitable for the subject to wear and noted how her hair and makeup was done so i could copy it best as possible.
Here are some of the photos from the shoot. I have manipulated some of them.
