This is one of my ideas for my back cover of my album, i chose to put jesus in the background because the album is based on religion so it fits in well.
I put the writing in scroll because it makes the album look older and it fits in with the theme, because its an old font that has been used for centuries.
I put a lens flare on the subjects finger, using photoshop, so it adds to the effect of jesus being powerful and  how so many people try to follow in his footsteps.

for my first test shoot, i am going to shoot a nun praying to god, but have bright red stilettos on underneath her gown, because i want to get the point across that the album is religious but the songs are still catchy and not boring.
i will put the picture in black and white except the shoes so it pin points the colour and it tells more of a story behind the album cover.

My edited pictures, this is the tool than makes the subject thinner, in the first picture i have thinned her stomach and got rid of her pregnancy bump.
In the second picture i have made the hips thinner and pin pointed certain colours to give it a focus point.

Bartolome Esteban murillo painted this picture that was an inspiration to david lachappelle, he recreated the image in a more modern  way, with a recent celebrity.
Lachapelle's version of the photograph, featuring kayne west.

This photo is by lachappelle, he has recreated the last supper and renamed it "Jesus is my homeboy" to prove that its not only sensible, and well behaved people who are dedicated to religion and god.

This is the photograph that lachappelle was inspired by its the original painting of the last supper by leanardo da vinci.

This photo has alot of character, and i think this is deffently one of my inspirations because it looks like a fairly complicated picture to do, La chappelle has recreated a famous religious painting as he does with many of his different images. In this photo it is a lady who lost her husband so lachappelle got a look alike in so it looked more realistic.

This is the photograph that lachappelle was inpired by.
