In this shoot i was inspired by the work of Bobby Adams and so i wanted to try and recreate my own images in a similar fashion. I like the direct contrast of age which can be found by comparing two images directly. I feel this shows the journey of life as it shows the effects of ageing on one person.
In this photograph, i have placed one older school portrait upon a photograph of the same people taken around 30/40 years later, i wanted to capture the effects of ageing and show how people grow old and their facial features change or stay the same. Instead of placing the images over half the models faces like Bobby Adams i found it easier to edit them together like this.
This image is showing the direct contrast of someone and this pictures were taken around 10 years difference, however the contrast between faces is not that great as the time difference is not that great. For this image, as they were two different images, and two different sizes, and so when aligning the two faces it was bit of a struggle to keep the images in proportion with one another, and so if i was to redo this shoot i would retake the photographs so that they were the same way round in order to make it easier when editing the two faces next to one another.
Although this series of photographs have been enjoyable to edit as it shows the journey of life instead of showing physical journeys made etc, i feel like i am going to stick to shooting more physical journies.
