PILLOW TALKS

ROLE

The following selection of images show some of my recent photography work for Tracey Neuls for a series of interviews with conducted for the brand. The interviews were written by our Brand Manager and I was asked to photograph and curate the space on the bed for the interviewee.

Each shoot was slightly different but had to be done in the same place, this challenged me to be inventive with the way that I photographed and used their props/personalities within the shoot to project a unique image each time.

SKILLS

• Art Direction• Photography• Lighting• Communication• Blogging, SEO

ROLE

The following collection of images show a magazine that I created called Taste.

I produced the entire magazine including curation, design and art direction as part of a university project.

I wanted to create as many photo shoots based on different tastes and personalities as possible, then display them in a magazine format with interviews and photographs throughout.

ROLE

My plan for this project was to film and photograph sets that demonstrate the uncomfortable forced situations of pleasure in a commercialised scene, putting these pleasures in extreme and medical situations where they become almost sinister.

SKILLS

• Art direction• Lighting• Composition• Set design• Graphic design• Cinema 4D

ROLE

Throughout university and since I have dabbled with 3D design.

Through doing so I have learned a huge amount about lighting and composition. I have benefited from it immensely as I have been able to take these learnings and apply them to other areas of my work.

It has also given me design and set possibilities that I would not have been able to create without huge budgets, opening up many more experimental opportunities for me in my work.
