And the contrast is that they have different types of color of suit and person (some not all) and some do look exactly the same and position. Personal's Artist statement: The photos that I took are about fashion, style, and advertisement. The images have to deal with positioning and modeling. The photos I took were challenging because it was very hard to explain how they should position and look exactly like the same in the original pictures, the same outfit wasn't exactly the same but close enough to match a dress up. The photos I took people that are taking had to stand a that was comfortable for them. The way they are position and look a way that was maybe uncontrollable for them to stay in the same position for a long period of time.
