Photography~Modern Day Alice

Hi Everyone!

Photography project: Modern Day Alice (Before editing)

My current textiles project is 'Alice in Wonderland' themed, and I have decided to do some photography over the weekend, and this is how they turned out. I will be editing them and will do a blog post om that too but I was quite happy with the results and I've not done a post in a while!

 So the meaning of 'modern day Alice' ( title of the group of photos) is basically young girls in this day and age that are judged of left alone for being different. Alice would have been judged after falling 'down the rabbit hole' for telling lies/ going mad, and these days, going mad isn't and good as the book suggests. There's a part of me that doesn't want to believe that  Alice would be bullied and have no friends these days but i'm convinced that would have been exactly what would have happened. Even though this is a beautiful 9 year old girl (my little sister modeling 'Alice') it would really make no difference and for being 'mad' it would not be a happy place for her to be. So in these photos she reverts to day dreaming, playing alone and reading.
Hope you like these pictures!

So thanks for taking the time to go through these photos and I hope they will inspire you!
Also, it would be sugh a help if you could comment the kinds of editing would look good, I was thinking colour splashes on some, black and white others but I'm still not totally sure, so comment your thoughts, I would appreciate it!

Thanks for reading! 
Byeeee!
