Street Photography - People in their Environment
I work as a photographer mainly doing family and portrait photography, but also undertaking commercial commissions and more general photography when required. All these forms of photography are carefully planned, set up and, in the case of portraits, posed to get the best possible image that the client will enjoy looking at.
The challenge that I have set myself is very different, it is to take unplanned and spontaneous street photographs as they arise. It is also to do this in a way that produces special professional quality pictures that tell a story about the normality that is in everyday life. For me this project is about people in their environment, and not about nice local buildings, and so the focus of each picture and its story should be about the people in it more than the building behind it.
Living in Glastonbury many of my images will be set in and around this area and especially in the town center close to where I live and work. Some times I will seek to go further afield. As I begin this project I have no idea if anyone will show any interest. but if you do please join with me comment on my posts and images and perhaps do likewise wherever you are. let me know and keep in touch.
