The Forbidden Look
I did a 1920's themed shoot at the weekend. I have been planning this since xmas. It took that amount of time to get the clothes, props, suitable models and venue together and then organise a time that suited everyone.
I then edited the photo to age it by sepia toning it and then adding textures, noise stains and imperfections and fading it to make it look as old as possible. The idea here was to see if I could make it as authentic as possible.
The image is meant to take the viewer to a train station waiting room where you encounter a situation where a beautiful wealthy white woman finds herself on the same bench as a black man as a photographer takes the shot, with the position of the case representing the barrier between the races.
Lit with a large softbox to my left angled towards the subjects and a reflected umbrella to my right.
The image I hope gets the viewer to think about the situation and the potential story behind the picture.
