For the second day, I decided to do a photoshoot as soon as I woke up- with no makeup or hair product, with my blanket and eye bags, and shoot a ‘No Bullshit’ image set. For this, I used the same set-up as yesterday, windowsill with a tripod, a handheld trigger, and a mirror set up to reflect the captured image in my direction, as this was a useful set up yesterday.
This time, I used natural dawn light, as this was the time of day when I woke up. I played with using my hands to frame my face, as I wanted to explore ways in which I could frame my face, like the work of Anya Holdstock.
This was an interesting set to create as it was a little weird just getting out of bed and doing a shoot; you can see the eye crusts in the corners of my eyes, and the overall lack of skin and hair care! But at the same time, I feel like it helped boost my confidence to continue to do these image sets as I was able to show my most vulnerable self first.
