In this project, I have to produce 4-6 images surrounding the idea of identity, and now I have to choose my final images for printing. I want the images to flow through the sequence, but I’m going to narrow down the best images between the two shoots.

I wanted to photograph my dad for the final two images, but because of time restriction, I decided not to focus on getting my printing done. I am getting feedback from fellow peers and friends to see which ones they are visually taken too.

I have rounded down my favourites from these shoots, which relates to the theme of this project, however, which are visually exciting. I definitely want to use one of the closeup portraits of them, it best shows what it looks like when perhaps I’m talking to them. The other images are either closeup or distance, and I think it would be nice to show the difference between the two.

FINAL IMAGES

From all the feedback and putting together different images, I’ve decided to go with the four above. Because i like how half of the photos are close-ups so you can see the details of there face, but then the distance images put them in place to where their identity links them to.

The last image of the series above, I was not going to use, but instead, use a close-up of her holding the guinea pig, but it felt like a series that mostly consisted of close-up portraits. That made the first image feel left out. So when I put the fourth image in it completed the series.

I want to print them in A3 Lustre paper, but I’m also going to print A4 because when doing to double exposure it looks like the quality decreases. Though my camera is 20.2 MP, it is just as a back-up.

The title of this series is going to be called ‘What I See’, as this is one of the most common phrases I use. It represents these images because this is literally what I see, through my own identity.
