upclose and personal

This photo seems to show that the man does want his picture taken as there is a slight smile on his face, also on approach he made no effort to move and just stood as I snapped away at him.

This lady wasn't so happy! She turned back and gave me a nasty look after I took her photo, I wonder why this is?

This man was in a hurry and I think this shows in the picture, his face looks stressed and he seems like he has somewhere to be.

This little boy looked up straight away as I stood in front of him, I think he enjoyed having his photo taken and was quite intrigued as he watched me for a while.


This man really did not want his picture taken! I aimed the camera at him several times and he turned away every time so after a couple of shots I moved slightly further away and got this shot. I am quite happy with it, however I wish I could have got in closer.




Our assignment was to take a photographer and take some photo's in the style of that photographer. I choose Bruce Gilden as I find his photography very intriguing and fun. I did have a struggle to take some of the pictures as it was quite awkward to walk up to people and take pictures right in their face with the media's perception of photo taking in public. However I did have a lot of fun, and looking back on the pictures I think they all tell a story.
