1.2.0 Shoot #9

An intelligent, articulate and very easy going subject made this photoshoot an enjoyable afternoon. My main problem however was trying to find objects that reflected his character. Unfortunately for my purposes his house was not packed full of the usual object d’art or knick-knacks that you may expect to find in someone’s home.

When considering the printed dissemination of this project it would be tempting to take the lazy route and use one of the online publishing services to create a ‘pretty’ photobook which could easily get lost amongst the plethora of self-published books that these companies rely upon.

1.2.0 Shoot #8

This is another man who requires complete anonymity; not least because he seems to have three distinct personae – The professional man, his personal life & his fantasy character. In exchange for some photographs of his fantasy self he allowed me some shots to feature in this project.

1.2.0 Shoot #7

This subject asked me to explain my intent and to see some examples of the project so far. He then returned to me some interesting insights.

Prior to this MA I guess my work was very self contained. While I obviously did work with others I had a very distinct aim in mind for what I wanted to achieve.

How am I going to move forward? How will it develop? Mirrors are a challenge at the moment as I really want to continue using them as a positive weapon against our false sense of body-image, yet I am struggling to come up with suitable situations where the mirror can be used as a prop.

1.2.0 Shoot #3.2

I have had a discussion with this model around my use of masking within this project. He has a broad interest in traditional folklore and was able to inform me about some aspects of these tales which strike a resonance with my intent.

1.2.0 Shoot #6

This is the first shoot I have actually done with a stranger. All previous shoots were with friends / acquaintances I had met before and therefore were a lot more forgiving with my requests.

Work in Progress book mock-up

I am no graphic designer but I needed a professional way to collate my images for the Work in Progress Portfolio hand-in. A website would look too loose and a video would not allow careful consideration of each image as I would be dictating the speed at which they were seen. Powerpoint would look too amateurish so I considered Adobe InDesign to create a mock-up book layout.
