I was really excited when we were assigned this project. Just recently I was perusing the internet and stumbled upon Jack Radcliffe's series of his daughter. The pictures were deeply moving. Each one exuding a certain emotion. He wrote that these pictures showed him the significance of capturing human emotion. He also realized that his earlier subjects were isolated and detached, and that the photos in this series had more meaning and depth. Jack Radcliffe recognized that when you have a connection with the subject/s it shows up in the image. The image becomes more than just a pretty picture; it becomes something that everyone and anyone can bond with.
I love all of my photos, but I really became attached to the ones of Wes and Claire. I feel like this is because I had an attachment to them, I had a relationship with them.
I plan on capturing relationships and emotion. I want the people who look at my pictures to feel something. My biggest dilemma will be finding someone who will let me document their most "exposed" moments.
