Lifestyle Shoot - Server
For my Intermediate Photoshop class we had to art direct and shoot and retouch a fashion or lifestyle photoshoot.
For this project I was inspired by the "Fireside Room" (at the country club I work at) for its elegant, classic feel. I wanted to juxtapose the room's fancy, regal setting by using a server as the model. Although a server is looked down upon by members at a country club for just being "the help", these people need the servers for drinks, food and to enhance their experience. All day members bark orders at servers. I wanted to give back the power to the server portraying him in a position of power and confidence. Afterall, it's really the server who has the power and control over the members and their orders, and the members need him much more than he needs the members.
