Portraiture

Portrait Photography based on the Kate Moss portrait by Corinne Day
I found the experience of taking these photos and modelling for them interesting, the aim of the exercise was to capture natural facial expressions and gestures to move away from the traditional portrait poses. To achieve this aim we engaged the model in conversation to distract them from the situation whilst taking the photographs and thus avoid traditional 'photo faces'  

Atmosphere of Chesterfield. (Part 2 objects&buildings)

 

The above pictures are the second half of my impression of Chesterfield, not the people but the places, objects and street furniture of the town center.

Atmosphere of Chesterfield. (Part 1 people)

In trying to capture the essence of Chesterfield in just 1 hour I found that I was drawn to take 2 different types of photos, the first was of the people in Chesterfield and the atmosphere they create and is shown in the photos above.
