More Through

I am not as satisfied with these images. I actually went back to photographing myself, and I totally hated it. The feeling was different. I was just being stubborn because everyone was telling me to photograph other people, and I did, and everyone else liked the images but I didn't. Then I go back to shooting myself, and I hate it.

UGH

Story of my life

I also hated using this fabric, I used tulle this time. It made my face feel weird and just wasn't right. Or maybe I was just in a bad mood seeing myself in the images. I don't know

So here are this weeks edition for my series Through

 

Basically...

Through update

I am still currently working on this project. For this portion of the project I actually took myself out persuasion all together. I actually used my boyfriend as a stand in. Because apparently when people who actually know me and see the images that I am making it worries them and hurts them and they apparently put the wrong kind of personal meaning behind it. So technically doing it this way I am still making self-portraits, but its more of the essence of myself, its my ideas so even though I'm using someone as a stand in, it is still a self portrait.

I LOVED these images and the way that they all turned out. This time I used a cheesecloth type fabric. To be honest it was this Halloween decoration that was on sell at Wal-mart, and I though to my self "This is perfect!" 

When I showed these in class I think they had a much stronger impact than the photos that I turned in before

Some of the comments I got were "These are stupid good"

Let me know what you think!
