Considering the circumstances, I am happy with how this project went. I would of reshot a few images and photographed many more people if I had the opportunity. I have a list of people I can photograph in the future, so at some point I think I will be able to complete this project.
I enjoyed this project as it was challenging but exciting to always be shooting in new locations. It was difficult not always knowing what the place looked like before I got there but I learnt to quickly adapt to the environment. I also developed my skills of shooting using challenging lighting.
The final images I will keep (top middle, bottom left and bottom right) were really successful. Despite all being quite different and using different lighting, they work together. I had a lot of decision on whether to try and make them look more similar but I’m glad I went with my judgement as they work well.
My aim for this project is to show that people around the ages of 22-24 are all doing different things and this is normal. There is no set path or thing you should be doing in your life. From looking at this set of images, it shows the different jobs, hobbies and rooms which portray my message. I am still unsure where my module will go from here but from what I have learnt in this project is to make sure I am happy with the images while I am still doing the shoot. This will save me having to reshoot what I have already done. Also if I am doing portraiture I need to be aware of the angle I am taking the image at, I am looking down on the subject too much.
Overall I was happy with the progression of this project and I look forward to hopefully complete it in the future.
