Environmental Portraits
My first personal study was portraiture inspired by Arnold Newman, it focused on photographing people in their own environment e.g. bedroom this shoot taught me the importance of good planning as without it, this shoot probably would not have turned out the way I would’ve liked e.g. my main source of light was from the window so planning the correct times was crucial.
Identity
My second personal study was identity, I got inspiration from Annegret Soltau a German visual artist. Although i like the idea of this, i believe the images are quite boring on a computer compared to in real life hen you can see things such as the stitching details.
Anthropocene
These images are inspired by Andreas Frank, while being well thought out, still feel to me as if they are lacking. If i were to do it again i would delete the writing inspired by Barbara Kruger and leave the image to be interpreted by the viewer
My rock
The my rock project turned out very well, i enjoyed creating a zine and learning to use InDesign. For this project, we photographed different rocks and general coast related things in various places around Jersey.
