1. Mario Testino
Mario Testino photographs for fashion shoots
and in this particular image he is
photographing American Footballer, Tom
Brady.
The most striking thing about this image is
the dog having the same primal facial
expression. The shot is a mid-shot and Tom
Brady has direct address too the audience. A
plain and dull background is used to make
the audience focus on him and the dog, his
clothing contrasts that background and is a
similar colour to the dog. The way Tom Brady
is dressed shows he is wealthy and well
presented, he also has some facial stubble in
this image which shows masculinity. The way
Tom Brady is wearing a suit masks his
aggressive facial expression. The shot is taken
from a lower angle which portrays his
authority and powerfulness.

2. This image was taken for a fashion shoot. The most striking aspect of this image is their
outfits. The models hair and make up has been done in a unusual way which adds
aggression and makes them look animalistic. The background is very detailed and there
is a broad depth of field. The photograph has been taken in New York and the models
are wearing designer clothing which fits in with the New York scene. The models have
direct address to the audience although there is attitude on behalf of the model. This
image follows the rule of thirds, there is a high contrast of lighting and the focus of the
lighting is on them. The sky and the image being black and white reflects the mood of
the models.

3. Mario Testino photographed the Duke
and Duchess of Cambridge for their
official engagement photos. What I find
most striking about this image is the ring.
The lightness outside is bright and
reflects happiness, the image is well lit
and its shown through the lack of
shaddows. The image is a midshot and
there is a narrow depth of field. Prince
William is making direct address with the
audience although Kate isn’t. Both
William and Kate are wearing neutral
colours which emphasizes the ring and
draws the audiences attention. The body
language of the couple shows how
protective William is of her. with this
image you cant ignore who they are, they
are a image of royalty and this makes
them seem like more of a normal couple.

4. I have chosen this picture as I feel like this image shows a really good
representation of Princess Diana. The image is black and white which I feel shows
her elegance. The way she is lay down on the bed shows she is relaxed and goes
against the formality of official Royal Photographs she has taken on a daily basis.
The picture builds on her beauty and the image is taken from a flattering angle.
The lighting of the photo is from daylight other than the lighting on her face
which is from artificial lighting. Her outfit is elegant and Diana has minimum
make-up on to show she is natural.

5. I have chosen this image as a representation of creativity. The girl in the
picture being Kate Moss is a famous model and I think that the most
striking part of the image is her abstract eye shadow. The cool colours
around her eyes highlight the fact that she has warm brown eyes. Her red
lips attracts the audience’s attention, this is quite a bold statement. In this
image Kate Moss has direct address with the audience and the image is lit
from the right as she has a shadow on the left of her face.
