Week 6: Purple Hair

This past summer, my friend Cat dyed her hair purple, so I thought it would be fun to do a photoshoot with her! While we were exploring places on campus, I noticed there was a tiny empty space in between two of the buildings in the social science area. This space allowed sunlight to come through and hit a part of the sidewalk we were walking on. Immediately I had the idea of having her lie down and positioning her so that her hair was spread out right in the pocket of light. This produced vibrant colors that allowed for many shades of purple to be visible throughout her hair. Later, I edited the photo using a filter from VSCOcam and a diagonal square target effect from an app called Fragment (just to add texture and abstraction). I really like how the photo turned out overall!
