Environmental Portraits are images of individuals which show them in a setting which represents who they are and what they do in either their home life or professional life. This genre can produce images that give a truly interesting insight into the subjects and their stories. I really enjoy some of the most significant images from this style as they are extremely cinematic in their raw and direct nature.

Some influential artists that I will be studying include;

Arnold Newman (1918 – 2006)

Mary Ellen Mark (1940 – 2015)

Paul strand (1890 – 1976)

Michelle Sank (1953 – )

Bert Teunissen (1959 – )
