In these photographs I see Annalise with different backgrounds and colour filter of the images. Also, I see some images with Annalise wearing a camera around her neck and some photos she doesn't wear the camera. The equipment that I used was a camera, and a backdrop. These photographs remind of when photographers has to take a photo of me for a school picture. My instruction for this task was to take portrait photos of my partner. I had to take six portrait photos outside and six inside with a black backdrop. The task was very fun and exciting because we got to explore the school by taking portrait photos. |
EBI:
I think these images are successful because some photos turned well with the light and the backgrounds. I think other people would quite like these photoshoots of Annalise if was in a gallery. From this experiment I have learnt to use different backgrounds, experimented with light and experimenting with angles of the person. |

These are the photograph’s of Harlem community between 1975-1979. The photographer got to know over the months Harlem community and they got to know him. The photos are honest representation of African-American community. The photographer realized sed there isn’t only the picture making part but also social part. He became part of the community over the years and shared experiences with people. As if the camera was never there. |
The reason she’s documenting her community and mainly family helps her accept the fact that her youngest daughter is not invited to be part of the community. The photography helps her to come to terms with it. The photographers dream was to live near the river therefore pictures she takes are by or in the river. She celebrates women’s body through her semi-nude photos. Her inspiration are her children. Her photos are very emotional. |

The photographer uses her subjects to tell the story from her memory via the pictures rather then words. The people at photos look very comfortable and at ease. The photographer creates intimacy between the people she photographers and loves the fact that people who look at her photos can feel the intimacy too. Her inspiration was telling the story through her childhood memory. |
The subject on this photo looks very comfortable and at ease. They have positive relationship with the photographer you can tell by the how relaxed the subject is and by how colourful the whole photo is. The photographer might have been inspired by the subject’s pick of clothes, the clothes colour and style helps the photographer to connect with the street. This translates into colourful collaboration between the subject and the background. |

Peter Mitchell, born in 1943, has been quietly building a career for 40 years. Living and working in Leeds for much of his life, Mitchell treats his surrounding with a unique sense of care that is evident in his work. An essential part of the colour documentary scene in the 1970s and ‘80s, Mitchell’s landmark show A New Refutation of the Space Viking 4 Mission at Impressions Gallery in 1979 has had an immeasurable impact on contemporary photographic culture. Mitchell has never been a prolific publisher of work; 1990’s Memento Mori examined the dramatic impact of the Quarry Hill redevelopment project in Leeds and his long overdue monograph, Strangely Familiar, published in 2013, features formal portraits of Leed’s people and their places of work. Mitchell’s latest work, Some Thing means Everything to Somebody, is an eccentric autobiography told through inanimate objects silently observed by scarecrows. By pairing an intensely personal collection with the symbolic ‘Everyman’, Mitchell has produced something that is not only autobiographical but the representation of what a lifetime can mean.

In these photographs I see photographs of Zaki that I took at school (outside and inside) and using different backgrounds. The equipment that I used was Canon Camera and different backgrounds around in the school. My second favourite photograph is the one where Zaki is sitting on the bench with trees and buildings behind him and the filter of the photograph is light blue. |
EBI:
I think some of these photographs are successful because I used different angles and each photo shows Zaki with emotion. I think some people might like these photos because it might show a story to them. I have learnt to take photos of a different person who I never photographed before and I stepped out of my comfort zone. |

His work introduces new narratives about Black beauty and desire, embracing themes of the past and creating fictionalised moments of the imagined future. Mitchell’s work is characterised by a visual representation of Black life that emphasises empowerment, play and self determination. He is often inspired by pastoral and domestic scenes from his upbringing in suburban Georgia.
In 2018, he made history as the first Black photographer to shoot a cover of American Vogue for Beyoncé’s appearance in the September issue. The following year, a portrait from this series was acquired by The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery for its permanent collection. Mitchell has been a visiting artist and lecturer at a number of institutions including Yale University, Harvard University, NYU, Paris Photo, and The International Center of Photography. |
“I aim to visualise what a Black utopia looks like or could look like. People say utopia is never achievable, but I love the possibility that photography brings. It allows me to dream and make that dream become very real.” - Tyler Mitchell

In these photographs I see photographs of Annalise posing of how I wanted her to look from a respomse from Tyler Mitchell. The equipment that I used was a Canon Camera and backgrounds in school. My second favourite image is the last one where she is covered by leaves. I actually love this photo because the leaves are contrasting and I am trying to picture what she actually looks like, if I only saw this picture. It looks very mysterious and looks like something is going to happen in the leave picture. |
EBI:
I think these photographs are very successful because each image shows some type of story or the photograph is telling something to use.

In these photographs I recognise that each image has a different light. The equipment that I used was different fabrics, cloths, different backgrounds mirrors, and Canon Camera. The thing that interests me the most is that each image Annalise is facing different positions, so they are not all the same positions. The photograph that strikes me the most is the last image because it seems like a photographer who took this image and as well how the photograph was captures - Hero view with perfect sunlight. |

In this collage I see different images of the photos I took for documenting communities. In this collage I recognise that I used myself, dad, mum, sister, strangers, location of where I live, and Annalise. The equipment that I used to make this collage was A2 Mount board paper, images that I printed out, scalpel, ruler, and glue. This collage reminds of my life, school, home, and travelling. In this collage the thing that interests me the most is the layout of the collage. The image that strikes me the most is the one were my dad is smiling and looking up with the flags above him. |
EBI:
I think this collage is quite successful because maybe next time I should of picked a better, imaginative layout. I think some people would like this collage but also would ask who are these people? and why did you want to collage them? I would remember the top image of Annalise because I love how the fabric is around her whole body and I love the contrasting colours that I picked. I have learnt to pick different layouts for my collage and using different coloured backgrounds for the collage. |
WWW:

I used the white mount card paper, printed out A4 and A5 shopfronts on a plain paper, scalpel, scissors, sellotape, scalpel mat, blue backdrop, my iPhone. These photographs remind me of when I went to London with my family and we would see so many shops. There are variety of colours, tones, textures and patterns. There are mostly still colours, and some primary colours. I used portrait for my photos from camera app. |
EBI:
I used a lot of different lighting, straight lines, rectangle and square shapes, textures, pattern, and colour. I think people would like this work because the images are set up nicely and the shops look really real. I would remember these shops because they are very famous in the UK. I have learnt how to collage, learning different shops that I don't know, playing with the light and blurriness. |
