Prom 2020
Since shelter in place has started in my county, I have found myself pouring my energy into taking my own self-portraits and creating a new photo series. "Prom 2020" is a series I created due to the cancellation of my senior prom. I still wanted to dress up and do my makeup! I didn't have a prom outfit set, so I just used what I had in my closet. Then, I set up a fabric backdrop, my camera, and started shooting away! I also made some cute promposal cupcakes considering I never got to ask anyone to prom. Also, the purple cowboy hat is for my school mascot, the Cowboys!
I had a lot of fun taking these photos in my own living room and just being able to experiment with poses and photo techniques. I used the photos to create different collages since I've been working more on Photoshop lately. For the pictures, I was inspired by some songs that I wish I could've heard at prom. I used different lyrics to capture the essence of a prom dance. Overall, I just wanted to capture what I think prom could've been for the Class of 2020
