Name of my project


INDIVIDUALITY 



The name for my photographic series is going to be 'Individuality'. I have chosen this as the name for my project as it is a word that means a lot to me. This word allows you to be yourself an express your emotions and that in itself is important. In my project i will be demonstrating how photographing can be used to document someones individuality and furthermore celebrate someones individuality.

To start i will be getting in contact with people who visually express themselves to arrange photoshoots. the people i will be contacting will be people who stand out from the crowd because of their fashion, hair and or tattoos and piercings.

Nevertheless, even in the presence of such obviousness another obviousness asserts itself — the ve...

This week  we  looked into the 'roots of modern photography'. We l ooked at the roots of documentary photography so that our understanding of todays practice is rooted in an informed and critical appreciation of the past and how it worked. Through this lecture it helped inform us as we became  visually literate as we understood the language and the origins of documentary photography.  By studying the 'classics' of photography it helped us to understand where we are now in terms of the equipment available and the way the cameras have developed and work. It has also inspired me within my photography to go back to basics and try and shoot on film as i feel it will test my photography skills and improve me as a photographer.  The time period in  which we looked at was from 1930-1950. This time pe...
