Portraits or Landscapes?

Wednesday, 18 February 2009


I started thinking of ideas to do for portraits, and I thought of basing my photographing around the saying ‘Beauty comes from within’ and with this I was thinking of photographing women without make up, but having them dressed up for a night out, and looking quite glamorous just without the make up. I liked this idea but I just thought it would be quite difficult finding people who would want to be photographed without make up. I feel that this is a completely different approach to go with portraits and completely different to what everyone else does.

But I wasn’t sure where this would fit in well enough in any advertorial magazine so I started thinking of different ideas and I came up with the idea of photographing the coast and beaches, I’ve come up with this idea because I’m going away for this weekend in Wales so I thought that I could start photographing for it then and get ahead of the project. I know that I’m going to have to go a few more times but I’m going to get an idea of how the images will turn out. I feel that I’m going to enjoy doing this a lot more than doing the portraits, so I’ve decided that I will do some portraits in my own time for my portfolio.
