This shoot was done in my friend’s art studio in Brighton, where I took photos of him while he was creating some of his artwork. I wanted to be like a fly on the wall and take some candid shots of him in his own world. Carrying on with my concept I decided to shoot in black and white, and take a variety of shots with a range of different angles and compositions.  I wanted to take a couple of uncomfortable, close angle shots to see how they worked with my concept and also take a couple of wide angle shots to show the emptiness of the room. However, this shoot was different from my others as, although he’s isolated, he has voluntarily isolated himself by doing something he’s passionate about.

I think by shooting in black and white it doesn’t divert the viewers’ attention. It also adds to the isolation aspect of my concept. However, I feel like the images need a bit of post-production to make them more effective.
