Brain Storming - Brief ideas

I wanted to come up with ideas that i could use to take photographs within the studio. As I had never taken photos in a studio before.

If using the same subject, so that face would be the same throughout. However, the expression, clothes, and background would change.

In a previous workshop, we had tested a technique of studio photography that I found interesting. It questions the authenticity of the emotion present within a portrait. As the photographer is able to directly influence the subject. Search for facial expression to and take the shot. This technique broke down the barrier between photographer and subject. Keeping the studio in darkness and have music playing. Asking the subject to sit and listen. The photographer without warning at any time takes photos unaware of the facial expression being made by the subject. Therefore giving a more genuine portrait of emotion.

But I would question, the subject is still aware of (even though they may not see them) a photographer is in front of them, and still, the expression may not be 100% genuine. It is possible that street photography is popular, and it is possible to take photographs without people know going about their everyday lives. Giving a more genuine expression.

how does the surrounding, items and clothes change the meaning of a portrait? to read character. I want to play around with this concept and see the outcome of these photos.
