This photo was taken in an attempt to show fairy tales in a different way, a darker way. I named it ‘The Dark Fairy-Tale’. The reason that I did this is because I believe that darkness can often be as dreamy and as beautiful as the typical fairy tale ideas for example, a lot of colour. I took typical fairy-tale ideas such as long dresses, flowers and mysterious locations and showed them in a different way to how you would usually see them. For example I had black roses rather than red.

In this surreal photograph which I created I wanted to show someone stuck between two worlds. I believe in one way or another there are more worlds around us whether they’re ones which we create with our imagination or ones not yet discovered. I wanted to show someone discovering another world, possibly a better one. I also left this image quite open to perception for people to create their own stories behind this photograph.

The film ‘Big Eyes’ is a true story based around an artist who paints portraits of children with huge eyes and this is my attempt at creating a photographic version.

In this self-portrait I wanted to show a personal idea I have. This idea being that everyone has a good side to them but also a darker side. This effect I used to show this was done using long exposure, no Photoshop.

Project Title: Covid-19 Isolation

"Always Here"

The meaning behind this first final image is that although it may feel like you are alone and trapped inside a bubble at the moment during the virus, there is always someone who is going to be there for you. This is represented by the fish being alone in the bubble and the hand holding the bubble always being there.

"Dangerous World"

The meaning behind this image is the feeling of being trapped inside our houses because going outside and seeing other people is too dangerous at the moment and could potentially kill us. I have show this by taking a photo from shoot 2 of the tin mine window which represents the house and have it look like its underwater with some fish photos i took from shoot 1, this showing that the inside of the mine is safe but if you go outside you will be in the water which could harm or kill you.

This is one of my favourite photos i have ever taken. I was out and about in camborne town trying to capture some nice street images taking inspiration from Sean Tucker and Fan Ho, but slowly the light began to turn softer and softer when clouds started to cover the sun. This meant the use of harsh light in images to create some interesting shadows wasn't possible so i decided to gather my confidence and go ask some strangers for portraits. After a few photos I managed to capture this one, I don't think I have ever been more thankful for a cloud in my life.

When lockdown was put into place, this led me to think of many ways I could continue with my photography. After a few days, lockdown started taking its toll on my mental health and that's when I came up with this idea of being vulnerable at night when all your thoughts are with you when there is nothing to distract you.

These photos are showing abstract expressionism, when I first got this idea I was going to paint on the model but once I thought more about it, I chose to use a projector as it was more logical.

This photograph focuses on the mental health and what it physically does to a person’s health and appearence, I feel that this shoot was really meaningful to me because at that time I felt very passionate about mental health.

This photo was taken for the commercial project. The viking idea came from my learning support assistant as she dresses up as a viking as part of the LARP group that she is involved with.

This has become one of my favourite photos as it was the first time I had to set the studio up by myself, working out the best lighting to use and where to put it. While editing I decided that it looked better in black and white and much more authentic.

This was one of the photos taken while photographing the hire and beauty students for there project there theme was fairytale and we had to set up the studio to represent that .

This is the first professional shoot I have ever done and I am very proud of it and has become one of my firm favorites.

I took this photo at the start of my year at college and it was the first time that I had tried long exposure and I believe that the image came out very well especially for my first time trying long exposure. After I took this photo I began to take more long exposure photos and I have always got different ideas in my head for different long exposure shots I can create.

I took this photo for my product photography project and my thought process behind creating it was imagining that i was in the market for selling something and i was trying to make this product stand out and think of something that i had never seen done before and i think i have been successful in what i have created. I created it by waving some tissue around the product and used long exposure while waving the tissue around to create a smokey/ evaporating effect .

I took this photo for my fine art project and the reason i chose to do this particular image was because i saw an advertisement online for a photographer that had done this and i was very interested in how they did it and i thought i would challenge myself to recreate a style f photography that was new and unfamiliar.
