The Year Book. – Chris Carey
Chris Carey chose to have his senior photo taken in his student room at his house in Southsea. The reason Chris chose this location was because it is one of the places he has spent most of his time in while at University. He also chose this location and the morning as the time of day, because of the light which comes through the window.
The Year Book. – Rebecca Hailstone
This shoot was taken at the top of the hill above the Wycombe Caves. It was exciting going out there because I had never been to High Wycombe. Rebecca chose this spot to have her senior photo taken because of the view it has of High Wycombe her home town. More sentimentally Rebecca chose this place because it was one of the places she visited throughout her childhood and adolescence, and therefore it held fond memories for her.
The Year Book. – Robin Hinton
This shoot was done down by the Southsea common with Robin Hinton a photography student on my course. Robin chose this part of Southsea Common because it is his one of his favourite places to play football. As usual the digital portraits which were produced are included in the gallery below.
The Year Book. – Jack Margerison
This shoot went really well, it was a lovely day for it. The location that was chosen was just outside Brunel House by the Hard in Portsmouth. Jack chose this location because it was the first place he went to photograph during a workshop when he started the BA Photography course at the University of Portsmouth. The setup for the shot was chosen so that a photograph that was taken of him would mirror the photograph that was originally produced by Emma Benson in the workshop three years ago.
The State of Art Education
Art Education within England is changing. I took this photograph on Friday up in London. I’m not sure that I agree with the shift in Art Education, but with that much press, is it possible that the threat is bigger than we thought?
The Year Book. – Charlie Clarke-Billings
This shoot was done in the Registry Pub in Portsmouth. Charlie picked this location because of its speakers, and his memories associated with going to the Reg throughout his time studying at the University of Portsmouth.
The Year Book. – Charlie Faulkner
This shoot was spectacular. There we were with everything set up and out of nowhere all these boys turned up and jumping off the railings of the pier. Charlie chose this location in Old Portsmouth because of it’s scenic and sentimental value with regard to the three years he has spent living in Portsmouth on the University of Portsmouth BA Photography degree. Despite the chaos, I got the shots in the end – below you can see the portraits which will be included in the year book as well as some of the other set up shots.
The Year Book. – Terri Belcher
Terri chose to have her senior photo taken in Tenth Hole a tea room in Portsmouth. The reason she chose this location was because of her love for their cakes, and in particular her admiration of the cake display. One of the largest challenges was that this was one of the quickest that I have done so far. All of the images were taken in less than three minutes. In order to take the portraits, I had to hold the queue – which meant keeping people away from their cakes.
The Year Book. – Sebastian Santa-Maria
Above is a set up shot and below are the senior photos for Sebastian Santa-Maria. They were taken on Primrose Hill in London.
‘The Year Book.’ – Apidej Champpa Kamponwan
Above is one of the set up shots from the shoot with Apidej. The gallery below also includes a few more experimental shots as well as the two portraits which – should Apidej approve them – be used in the year book as his senior photos.
