Snow White Shoot

So, I completed my first shoot in the theme of Snow White, and as luck would have it, snow had fallen the night before leaving an ironic gesture at the pun of  'Snow White'. This idea works well because it helps to modernise the original story alongside the 'fashion catwalk' style of modern day.

'Her skin as white as snow'- this is definitely shown by these images as she looks so pale and innocent, especially in contrast with her red lipstick and the red apple.

After researching the original story, and alternatives, I came across a version where she runs in to the Forest and finds a job in the town there and lives with the seven dwarfs. One night, she then returns to the castle to steal the mirror and as the dwarfs were ex horse jockeys, they asked the mirror which horses to bet on and therefore became very rich indeed.

I was extremely pleased after I had finished this shoot as the outcome proved very successful and the costume was very effective. This was a direct link to both the original story and the brief as it represents the idea of Snow White through the costume, yet contains the hidden pun and idea of the fashion parade.
