Caloric content

I have thought about various scenarios for this sub theme.


  1. the whole scene would be in a room with a white wall. the model will wear a dress or something of just one colour. the make up will be strong and the hair  messy but in a good way. she will be sitting at a table with a plate of fruits that have the same colour as the dress/outfit. she will eat some fruits from the plate but at the same time her other hand will stretch for some cookies/chocolate or anything else that contains more calories than her fruits and it's quite unhealthy that will be in front of her, on the table. she will have a desperate look:she wants to eat healthy but at the same tome she is craving for something "unhealthy".
  2. the scene would be in a elevator. she will be dressed the same as above and her hair and make up the same. the focus will be on her and she will be on the left whilst on the right, in front of her, there is someone else whose face won't be seen but his/her right hands holding cookies will. the model will have the same desperate look:trying to eat an apple whilst craving for the cookies.
  3. then I got to mirror reflection. her sitting in front of a big mirror,trying to get dressed, to put on a dress/outfit in which she should fit in as she takes care of the calories she s eating. whilst getting dressed, she can see in the on the table behind her a plait full of beautiful cupcakes and again there's that desperate look to try one even if she can't.
  4. from that I got to my last idea: sitting at the table, very nicely dressed. in front of the model there is a plate with 2 cooked carrots and some peas. as she is careful with the calories the image will also show her reflection in the mirror: her again with a plate full of chips and a burger. she is obsessed with her weight so she tries to eat as healthy as possible but at the same time she is craving for some "real" food.

for my last scenario I have found a project about reflections and it is about the mirrors reflecting what the subjects feel in that moment. It's Tom Hussey's project:



I would have to take 2 images: one with the carrots and peas and one with the unhealthy food and then create the reflection in Photoshop.
