First photo shoot - Possible images

These are some of the possible photos that will be used for my digipak and website. As I am involved in the video as the main singer, I am unable to take the photographs myself for these, as I am in them., therefore, for these particular shots I am using photos that Grace and Charlee have taken. Although we may be sharing photos, the lay-outs and ideas for our websites and digipaks are completely our own. We took them whilst filming some of our content for the music video, so I was wearing similar outfits and had similar makeup. This will therefore make the connection between the video and the promotion of the video in the digipak and on the website.
As we continue filming, I hope to get more images in different outfits, to have more of a variety.

Image 1:
I like this image, as it gives off a sense of mystery, but also vulnerability as I am looking away from the camera. However, because there is no direct gaze, I feel it cannot connect to the audience or grab their attention.

Image 2: This isn't an image I will use in my digipak as my back is to the camera. This may be seen as treating the audience as an enigma, whereas the aim is to make them feel included and as if they can relate and form a relationship with the artist.
 
Image 3: Although this is a natural picture, as I am laughing, it doesn't fit the mood of the song we have chosen, which reflects the mood of the album.
Image 4&5: I like this photo as starting straight into the camera, also my body is turned inwards to face the audience. In this pose I am not in a closed position, implying I am open to the audience, and allowing them to see my vulnerability as I'm not protected. I feel this links with the theme of the song, video and essentially the album.

 
 
Images 6&7: I also like these two as they are closer shots, I use direct gaze and a subtle smile, which is directed at the audience.

 
 

 Images 8&9: These are medium shots and are from a standing pose. I don't like these as much, as I feel my facial expressions look as if I'm uninterested.
