Brief Final Idea

After my research through 3 final ideas i have decided my most strongest idea was the Documentation of a Daily Routine of an Elderly person and a Younger person. I feel that this is the strongest idea after researching styles i could shoot in i came across two photographers; Julian Germain and Kaylynn Deveney. Julian Germain did a book called 'for every minute you are angry you lose 60 seconds of Happiness' which focused on an elderly man, Charles Snelling. All of the images are said to be taken over 8 years. The images show a lonely man, and the deteriation of him over the years, as he lives alone, the images give a very sad emotion when you view them. Kaylynn Deveny did a series of images called 'The day to day life of Albert Hastings which is shows simple styled images yet the subject is so strong which makes the images, it has a documentary diary style about the images which is because of the captions underneath the images on what looks like lined paper, as if the images have been stuck in a book, and the captions are wrote in pen which shows a relaxed style to her images. So after my research this is now my final idea of what i plan to do, I will photograph a teenager and an elderly man. with all the images i produce i will make small little diaries for each series of photoshoots. Some images i may put in black and white yet i feel it will be more simple and natural if i keep them in colour with only slight editing.For these images i will be shooting from the persons home to get that real life documentary feel. I am going to present my work in a diary style way in a book.
