DOCUMENTARY & PERSONAL WORK
It's About the Art of Photography - A Fusion of Documentary Genres & Experimentation
Personal & Experimentation Work ...
Projects that are very personal to me - including turning the camera on myself as I battled my own demons with a diagnosis of Breast Cancer.
Combining & Experimenting with photography as an art form, utilising in camera techniques, digital editing & mixed media methods to create alternative imagery that if required can be adapted to a commercial enterprise.
Objective ...
To me this type of photography (basically Documentary) has to have a story, be visually appealing and have context (meaning), with the images I produce operating as either a singular entity or part of a wider body of works. My intention, no matter the adversity, is to provide an empathetic approach and insight for all those involved in these projects.
Documentary & The Streets ...
My forte is The Streets, by its definition a style of Social Documentary, capturing not just candid images of subjects in public places but the places themselves. Simply put it encompasses all in the public domain, producing images that are a pure vision of the subject matter - or so they may seem!
The general consensus with this type of imagery is that the documentary genre be based on a forthright and precise representation of the people, places, objects and events that have shaped daily life and the world in which we live.
