I really liked these pictures; they were refreshingly interesting and fun to look at. I thought they were very youthful and brought back memories of when I was a young child growing up. I really like how the pictures are portraits, yet the background of the photographs really give the subject life. She did a really good job in capturing the simple, but happy moments in these young girls life. It is amazing how the background really gives the photograph a certain tone. If there was no background or place the picture would have a completely different feel to it. I think showing a specific place in the background is a very important piece in the photograph as a whole. My favorite photograph was the one of the little girls with balls under their shirts pretending they are pregnant. I like this one the best, because it shows kids being kids and being curious about being an adult. It also shows kids just simple playing and pretending.
I also liked that photo. She was very good at snapping the photo at just the right moment to get the best shot possible. I didn't feel like everything was staged.
ReplyDeleteI agree many of these pictures brought back memories of me and my older sister. They were very natural and like Jake says they didn't feel staged or that the subjects were posing.
