Some of her images from the Rolling Stones
Examples of her work
The purpose of this photography is to show the power that the queen has and she dose this by taking the photo at a low angle causing it to look like she is over powering and has power.
The style is grey but also positive because of her white pale, but warming face and with the extra gold buttons this really makes the queen look warm and powerful.
The purpose of this photo is to show, how women can be big and powerful even if the place is small and women have minds and should use them. Should not let anyone else tell them what to do.
Examples of her work
The style of this photo is to make the person look big next to normal house furniture and also making the women take up the space of the whole room.
This show the Bruce Springsteen (The Boss) as a normal working class American who is proud of his country by showing there colours white and red in the background. He is also wearing working class jeans which show he is not one who likes one up ship.
Examples of her work
This photo show the female body and the purpose is that it show that woman are not all the same. They are all shapes and sizes.
The style is grim and very dark the angle of the camera is neutral and level. I think this is to show that we are all equal no matter what shape or sixe we are or gender male or female
