Once I had taken the photographs I decided that the images looked better unedited and so I picked the images I felt were the best out of all of them and used them unedited. I also only used a singular male model in these images to create a personal feeling to the images, as if the model was connected to the viewer through the images via the feelings of sadness and insecurity I have tried to portray using the composition and lighting. The decision to use a male model as opposed to a female model was because I wanted to portray that it is not only women who can suffer from psychological disorders, it is also men. However, women feel more able to go and see a doctor and get treatment for it than men as men have a tendency to feel embarrassed, as if asking for help is showing weakness.
