Spot the Difference.

For this task we have been asked to create a photograph in the style of a photographer of our choice, this photographer does not have to be famous, they can be a less spoken about photographer.

Must also include your work in progress so evaluating as you go along and also explaining how you edited.
Our research should come first and must be in depth before we take out final image.

Annie Leibovitz.
Annie Leibovitz is an American portrait photographer who is known for her intimate portraits of celebrities. She began her career as staff photographer on the just launched Rolling stone magazine. She studied at the San Francisco Art Institute where she was inspired by photographers such as Robert Frank and Henri Cartier-Bresson. I like the below photographs because they are very personal and you can see a side of the model that wouldn't normally be seen in a public setting.

She hasn't only photographed celebrities but other people to, but due to her working with The Rolling Stones magazine her work is based mostly on the celebrities.

My image.
Here is my version of the black and white image that is just above this one. I think it would be a better image if the back ground of the original image was black to begin with but i had to work with what i had  at the time. So i created a black background in photoshop and then cut my model out of the original image and stuck him onto the black background. I think that if the model (my brother) was looking at the camera it would look a lot more like the image i wanted to copy.
