Here are some of my unedited images from the shoot today. I chose the natural 'Window Lighting' as it gave the perfect effect for my images, Hannah literally looks like she is floating on a cloud and in some of the images I used talcom powder to give the effect from some of my previous research! 

review of test shoot :

I was happy with the blue 'play around' shoot, but in hindsight I was taking the 'cloud' idea too literally by painting it onto the face and I think that gave it an amateur look as trying to recreate a hazy cloud feel with the stereo typical 'blue' is not the kind of look I am going for. I want the image to be mystical and hazy and feel changing the colour of the shoot and playing with powders will give a great impact in a more sophisticated and professional manor. 

..That feeling when you're flying high above the clouds and the sky is all the same colour.
  A monochromatic dream, where you can't decide if you're alone, or home.
  The question of whether or not this is heaven, a powder blue marshmallow heaven.

Here is some experimenting I did in prep for the monochromatic photo shoot. These images aren't strictly monochromatic, it was just to play with the 'cloud' effect after the research I had been looking at and to have a play with some styling. These images were shot in my bedroom on my iPhone so they're just a rough guideline for myself. I was moderately happy with the images, but I have no got a different idea for my main photo shoot as I have a very fickle personality. Oopsy!

i love the way the smoke/powder is surrounding her in this image. a little bit of inspiration for
my photo shoot 

initial ideas -

powder paint
cotton wool
candy floss
egg shells
giant egg shells
flowers
naked 
body paint

keeping to the script by choosing my colour for the monochromatic shoot to be ..

 POWDER BLUE!

here are a selection of Tim Walkers monochromatic images that inspire and captivate me. he is the king of all things fairytale and the attention to detail is somewhat to be admired. on my 'list of things to do before i die', is to have a nice cuppa with the whimsical warrior himself.
