This is the eleventh picture for my AP 2D portfolio. The theme is "confinement" which will be portrayed in various ways through fashion photography.

The butterflies are coming out of her stomach because when you're shy/nervous that's the feeling you get.
I wanted to try to portray it as an emotion, not an act of hiding from society which is all too common.

This is the final piece for this series.

Wow. I really like this one. very nice job here.
The violet lighting really sets the mood. I love her expression ,introspective and sad. most shy people have a lot to offer and are usually fairly intelligent but are to afraid to open up to people. which i think the buterfly was a good choice because most butterflies are most pretty when they open there wings. also i like how they fly around her wrists acting like chains,also that they're flying from her bellybutton almost like she has butterflies in her stomach. that was a nice touch.well i don't think i have any advice for you except i like your work and i think you should keep doing what your doing. Great Job.

My Sincere Regards.
