My focus in this project is going to be reflection. Within this project i am going to be taking photographs of buildings, water and any type of this that reflects and distorts a picture. My aim with this project is to show that small things can change our prospective on life and the world itself.
Mood board
STRAND 1 - Reflections of Water
STRAND 2 - Reflections of Buildings
In these photos I created a dark effect so that the pictures, which were reflected onto their faces, looked more vibrant and colourful. While taking the photo I made sure that Ayla and Layla were always centred in the middle of my shot. I also made sure that I took the picture from an eye level angle to ensure that the reflection was fully captured within the picture.
As a background I mainly chose pictures which were either red in colour or orange as I knew bright colours would definitely show up on both their faces. I feel that the shoot went pretty well but I could of added different colours to give more variation in the shoot. |
STRAND 3 - Reflections of Mirrors
ln this Strand I printed out images of London's notorious buildings and reflected them using water in a bowl. This created a mirror effect and turned out even better than I expected.
This work was influenced by an artist called Guido Gutierrez Ruiz who is an up and coming photographer who takes photos of buildings and people reflecting in water. A lot of my work is heavily influenced by this artist as I find his work inspiring and very interesting. |
