Here are some of my favourite photographs from my first shoot;

I like this photograph because they are together looking out of the window onto their new garden, and deciding what corner they should put the garden shed in. I really like that they are both wearing similar colours on their clothing and that these colours are again similar to the colours of the walls and carpets in their new house.

Another thing that I like about this photograph is my grandparents footwear. My Grandma has taken her shoes off whilst walking on the carpet which shows her respecting her new home. Whereas my Grandpa is wearing socks and sandals, which is a stereotypical look for a Grandad.

This photograph of my grandma doing her laundry out in my back garden is one of my favourites from my first shoot because of the detail involved. For example the row of flower pots along the side of the garden and the socks individually pegged up on the washing line. I also really like this photograph because of its simplicity; just folding her washing off of the line yet it creates a photograph which is interesting to look at.

Another thing that I like about this photograph is the way it is divided by natural leading lines; the top of the brick wall, leading your eyes from one side of the photograph to the other side. There is also the leading line from the grass. These lines transport your eyes around the photograph.

During the days when my grandparents would be in-between house’s they would often come and spend their days up at my house. They would bring a pack lunch and use our wifi to check their emails. They would also come up to check on our dogs, who they take down to green island beach every morning for a walk. In this photograph my grandparents had just finished having their lunch and were just deciding on where they wanted to go next. The reason I like this photograph so much is because I think it is a good representation of my Grandparents for the couple of weeks when they were in-between houses. They were a bit unsure of what todo with themselves and ended up floating between mine and my uncles house, trying to keep themselves busy.

This is my last final from my first shoot. I love the combination of the three different types of bricks; the bricks layered on the floor, the granite and the rim of bricks around the front door. I think it creates a rich texture and makes the red fire extinguisher look even bolder.
