Shoot Planning and Make Up Ideas

   

 Charley is a very charismatic and charming woman, i want to capture her beauty as well and show her presence in a photo.
The make up is going to change a lot throughout my 3 images to show the journey through the character and her life.
For the first image Charley is her younger self. Living in london in the 50s, carefree and full of spirit. I want to do a light 50s make up look. With red lips and a top lid lined eye, marilyn monroe inspired.
For the second shoot i want to depict charleys slow demise from her young self, after marriage, children and divorce charley has become a lonely and dependant woman. I want to create the scene from the book where charley is in bed ringing george. for the make up i want her to look, tired and un made up, stripped of her well thought out appearance the raw self of her life.

For the final image of the shoot i have chosen the scene in which she is meeting george for dinner, i feel this shows her most charismatic and confident side. I want to create the make up to be of the time, the 60s twiggy look, although charley herself is ageing she is still a fashionable and stylish lady and her having the make up that was primarily created by the youth of the 60s depicts her struggle to want to stay and be young.
