further shots - shoot 4







These are shots from a shoot i did with a young entrepreneur called Clint. He is a new fresh face to the street food industry, recently getting contract with local pubs and bars in Worcester to sell his food. Clint allowed me to photograph him and for me this was an awesome opportunity as i was photographing someone who clearly visually expresses himself and has still managed to become a successful young man. It shows that your appearance doesn't have to stop you from achieving. 

For this shoot i wanted to produce portrait shots of Clint in around Worcester but also in his work place. i wanted to keep the images coloured as Clint's hair was something which contrasted really nicely with a lot of coloured backgrounds. i also tried to experiment with shapes as i was inspired by Matt Hans Shroeter who is a master as using shapes and forms in and around his subjects.

For example, primarily and obviously, Western/Eastern , the latter term of this opposition englobing the marks of a radical 'otherness'; or again, the placing of the two men within the implied opposition capital/labour . Nevertheless, even in the presence of such obviousness another obviousness asserts itself — the ve...

Lecture 2

l ast week we talked about how we can define documentary photography and all the different sub categories can fall under the branch of documentary photography. 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...
