People always relate color to their emotions. For my series I wanted to use different settings and props along with smoke to evoke different emotions. Warm colors like red, orange, and yellow are usually related to happiness and joy but also anger. Darker colors are usually sadness or power. I wanted to show hoe something so simple like a color can change how you are feeling.
To execute this series I kept the same element; smoke but different colors to evoke different feelings. White was peacefulness and serenity so I had an angel like girl in the woods surrounded by white smoke. Green was disgust and sickness by having someone ill looking with medicine. Red was love shown by having a couple in bed surrounded by red smoke. Blue was sadness shown by blue smoke falling from an umbrella in an empty field. Lastly yellow was happiness shown by a baby in bright colors with a big present. Each photo has different editing like sadness was darker and dreary with lower contrast and less brightness as opposed to serenity which was brighter and more saturated.
