Some of my favourite topics that I have done in the pat year and a half is predominantly portraiture focusing on identity, around masculinity and femininity and environmental portraiture.
For my first shoot on environmental portraiture i took it on film which I really enjoyed I love the process of film and taking photos on film as there is a certain nostalgic way the photos come out and the excitement you get as you don’t know the outcome of the photos till you get them developed, if I was to focus on this topic for my final piece I would like to incorporate film into it.
The shoot I did around femininity I really enjoyed working around and with my friends I feel like the outcomes of these photos show the a bong witch girls get with each other, which for me reflects my own friendship group as we are a close group there for making this topic relatable.
I enjoyed researching Justine Kurland and her work as I found it really inspiring for this shoot and found her work fascinating and I believe I could add some aspects of her work into my own.
For my final project I would like to incorporate these two themes as I think they go hand in hand with each other and would create a project which I would love and enjoy to create I believe I would be able to create a project where people would be able see themselves in and shows natural beauty.
