Personal Study: Photoshoot 1/5

Photoshoot 2 | Photoshoot 3 | Photoshoot 4 | Photoshoot 5

For my first shoot I decided to look through my mum’s photo album and scan some the images in order to use them for my project. I chose a mixture of pictures from the 90s and 2000s in order to show her growing up through out the years. I started by scanning pictures of her at a very young age in primary school, then in secondary school with her and her group friend, few images of her in her late teens after meeting my dad, and finally some photographs of her in her early 20s with her kids. Some of the images had writing at the back of then and I decided to scan them as well and use them in my photobook. I believe they were written years later by my mother, in which she explains how she felt. I enjoyed doing this as it gave me a wider understand of what it is like being a teenager in Romania.
