Body History
This was my final project for Photo 1. I used a film camera to take pictures of myself. This was extremely difficult due to the sensitivity of a film camera's light meter, and because I also had to contort my body in many ways to simply get the correct focus, lighting, and overall composition. Even having various backgrounds, it was incredibly difficult. My body was sore for weeks during this project from the different positions it had to be in for the shoots.
In the end this project was very successful, because it had very strong and clear images that demonstrated my overall message. This message was that my body -- through marks, scars, and its overall features-- showed my past and what I have been through during my lifetime.
I was very please with how successful this project was. It also allowed me to develop a better understanding of how my past has effected me.
