Little preview of my shoot with Danni

The reason I did this mini shoot with Danni was because I wanted to explore and develop my confidence in photography. This was in the dark studio and the material was old fabric, trying to make it look more luxurious.

I looked up corset shoots but nothing came up as classy. Then I looked up Dita Von Teese who is famous for her burlesque dancing, modelling and acting. I loved her constant vintage look and knew that Danni had a corset handy. Also, the fact she has a beautiful porcelain skin and dark long hair made it perfect to shoot. Danni is great with being in front of the camera and improvises with positions which helps me along.

Also, Rankin has photographed some of Dita Von Teese and I am a huge fan of his work.

I decided to move away from just portraits like before as it felt like that was a practise shoot. Although I was inspired by Slimane's work I didn't know how hard it was going to be. I had an idea in my head in what images i wanted. But it seemed like a wall had blocked my mind and everything i could think of was rubbish. I remembered back to Brian Griffin's work
