Assignment 3

This assignment's topic was Change. So I decided to focus on peoples perceptions of change, all of the photos have their own story and reflections. And the methodology was to actually get people to take an item from their childhood, reflect on it and give me what they felt was the expression that best fit their childhood.

All of the photos were left semi saturated instead of black and white, this allowed some of their items to appear colourful and to help give the photos this sense of reflection. Yet I did not want a sepia tone across all the photos as I didn't want to give it an 'old' sensation.










All of the photos are shot so that one could look at them without any particular order, they allow the person to view a 'snapshot' of the model's life.

This last photo however is special, a sort of rounding up photo. It shows an elderly woman(my grandmother actually) with no item but yet her arms are wide open. To sort of say that even though her memories of childhood has vanished, she still lives in the moment and is content to what life brings to her.
