For this photoshoot I visited the field next to Jersey Dairy, where weekender used to be. The setting of this photoshoot doesn’t particularly relate to the themes of youth and identity, as this isn’t somewhere I used to visit except when I went to weekender, but it was a good setting to display the narratives I had in mind. The setting also correlated well with the settings used in Justine Kurland’s book. The narratives I wanted to display here was playing catch/ piggy in the middle, hula hooping and playing hide and seek.
