Portraits

This next project is called Badminton Portraits and links with the last two projects I have put up because it is to do with Englishness, these are my 8 finales. I used two girls and two boys from the badminton society, my idea was to photograph different styled portraits of them, this is because badminton is an English sport and I wanted to show how fun this English sport can be. I got my inspiration from the photographers Eve Arnold and Annie Leibovitz because their pictures are interesting and creative.









English Objects

So I am at the end of my second year at uni now and would like to show you all the photography projects that I have done through out the two semesters. I have already shown you my first project so the next one is called Englishness.

I don't think I did very well in this project but I will show you my finale photos anyway.


These are my English object finals, I used a white backdrop that I thought looked better than the first shoot because the colours on the objects fit well with the background and also they stand out more against it. I got ideas from the photographers Martin Parr and Andre Kertesz, which inspired me to use different techniques such as taking an object and making it into something that looks interesting and appealing to the eye.
