Planning my Photoshoots

Photoshoot 1

For my first photoshoot, I plan to take photos of the landscapes and environment during my trip to Berlin. I plan to base my subjects mainly regarding the wars and the overall impact that it had on the areas within the city itself. I would like to base my photoshoot on the works of Michael Schmidt and his interpretations of the aftermath of war within Berlin. I want to show the progress that Berlin has made throughout the times of the war and the aftermath of what it did to the city overall. I want to present the youth of the city and its buildings to capture how far it’s moved since the war ended.

For my second photoshoot, I plan to take photos within my trip to Krakow. I would mainly like to include photos from the location of Auschwitz as it was a German occupied concentration camp. The link to the topic of war is still the main factor within the photography I would like to capture and I find this to be a very impactful image choice. Auschwitz was a very heartbreaking and incredible dark moment during the German occupation so I wanted to capture a real sense of how devastating the event was and the location it was held at.

For my second photoshoot, I plan to take the route of photographing places in Jersey. I would like to still follow down a similar route to that of my first photoshoot, including possible war related subjects such as bunkers and castles. I will be exploring Jersey for a variety of bunkers, especially ones with graffiti on them, just to have that similar sense to that of Berlin wall and bunker images within the city of Berlin.
