Day: 26 June 2017

I have done previous work which relates to family and could be a starting point for my personal study surrounding the area; recently I have had the privilege of photographing of a family relatives wedding. This is not my first family but is still relatable to the topic.This was my first ever attempt at weeding photography and it took place at Corbiere Phare at the beginning of June. I am also photographing another family member’s wedding next month which I am very keen for after my first responsibility for such a big event in someone’s life; essentially a milestone that they will treasure for the rest of their life. I felt very privileged to be assigned to documenting tat life event, as well as a weight on my shoulders, it was a good experience and I thought it would be useful to use the images as a starting point for my journey as well as sending them off to the bride and groom for when I may not ever look at them again – therefore I am going to make the most of them and show you my journey from the first wedding to the next one. I hoe this type of photography will encourage me to think I a new way about photographing certain topics to tell a story or narrative through what I do as I really like this idea. I also thieve off the fact that these photos will be historical in the eyes of the people they are intended for and I love recording the history for my own images to then be remembered in years to come. It wasn’t until now that I realised the photos would be a great example of documenting something that will essentially live in an archive of someone else’s life – the main focus for the fist part of my A2 study for photography – it links perfectly to family and how time can influence the events of someone’s life. Here are some of the images from the very beginnings of the day, within the first couple hours. I took over 500 throughout the day. I will show some more as the project continues.
