Setbuild

Another project at university! We have to build a set from a film in a team and take photogrpahs of it. The aim is to match the original frame as much as possible. I have already done this project. We had a week..
One of the most stressful weeks of my life! My team and I chose the film atonement.

This is the frame we chose..


The week was very successful! We were all actually a bit shocked about how well. This is our re-creation of it.



We still are in need of editing this image!

I took a portrait of Nikki and love how it came out. She looks young and care free. I am going to use this image for my project. Her pose seems young and child like, almost posey leaning out the door.

I am going to put this picture with some photographs that I took of baby toys, bottles etc.
I think it gets the point across. In this portrait she has her own identity of a young girl, care-free and smiley. The other images add the other part of her. Her baby is who she is also.




Series And Sequence

This is a new project I have been working on for university. The idea of this project was to create a series of images that linked together and explained something, the brief was left very broad so we could experiment and do basically whatever we wanted.

I decided to base mine on my best friend from home, Nikki Miles. I wanted the series to be about something that had happened. Something new that had changed my life and the people around me. I chose Nikki as she had fell pregnant and I wanted to base my project on teen moms. I was going to take portraits of girls I had been to school with. Them and their children.

I had always had a negative outlook on young mums. I just always thought that it was not the best age to have children when your basically a child yourself. My view has changed as the closest person to me was now in the same situation as many girls. I wanted to portrait them being happy.

I had always figured that young mums must be miserable but sometimes I tihnk that I have neer seen Nikki so happy. I was going to shoot over easter...

The two other young mums could not make it on the day we had arranged so I had to go in a new direction with this project. I decided to base it on nikki, her being young yet having responsibilities of being a mother.
