FRIENDS

 Another important part of my life are my freinds, they like my parents, help to shape me. 

Within the set of pictures i created, are black and white photographs. That do little but show the character of the person, my personal favourite is the half picture of rachael.

 The photograph of Jennifer laughing, is a shot that clearly shows her and how fun she is, the photograph of Jack is a serious picture which also reflects his personality, the close up portrait of Colette is a reflection of this girls great beauty. 

 I would like to carry on with this series of photographing my freinds. 
      MY MOTHER

 I have to wait another week to photograph my mum again, as we now live 3 hours apart.

 However, i have been thinking about ways to photograph my mother and i have to decided to photograph her in Yorkshire where she grew up.

 After being giving advice, i looked at the book Urban history of Photography Street and Studio, which looks at photography in the street and studio. 
 
 I want to try and create photographs of my mother without her getting upset, or flustered about the situation.

Park gardens

 Within these pictures i wanted to show my favourite place, this represents my favourite place to go within my world, as the park gardens are quite beautiful and tranquil. I often walk around them or go for a jog. 

First Blog

 This is my first ever blog
 I have been thinking and making spider diagrams to explore this idea and it always comes down to the same thing: my family and freinds. My family and freinds are what round me, and have made me the way I am, however, I don't want the project to be based on one idea of family.

  My parents are my world - and I do want to show this, I want to portray my two seperate lies ( or how I feel it is), my life in Nottingham and my life in Essex.

 In Essex i have an easy life- my mum cooks for me, cleans, i have no money troubles and i have my two best freinds. Then, in Nottingham i have to manage my money, cook, clean for myself and have had to made a new set of freinds. 

 I would perhaps like to try and create a series of photographs that look at both worlds...
