Personal Study – Photoshoot Plan

For this project, the photographs I will be taking are documentary style, capturing moments in time. My aim is to take images unplanned, and unbeknownst to the subjects, ensuring that they are completely natural. However, I will also organise times where I photograph people but I will still only capture unplanned, spontaneous images.

These shoots will consist of images inside and outside, following where they go, incorporating a variety of locations in this project, e.g. town, seaside, schools, houses etc.

My first photoshoot that I will take for this project will be focused on my friends. The photoshoot will include teenager girls together doing what they do for fun, I will document what activities they do and capture moments of them naturally.

Next, I am going to take images of my younger cousin and his friends and family. I will use the same approach, shooting them acting and doing what they usually would. These photographs will have images of the family as a whole, portraying their life but then I will also zoom in on the individual members and shoot images based on their own independent life.

My third shoot will be based on the life of my own younger brother. I will follow a similar procedure, to shoot photos of what he gets up to in the day and his routines.

I am taking inspirations from the works of photographers Tom Wood, Andriana Nativio, and Andrew Kung. I’m using different aspects of all of their images to inspire my own project. My images will reflect some parts of these artists work, whether it is the type of image, the aesthetics or the intentions.
