With this in mind I decided to look into self perception and how people who model would like to be seen or how they ARE seen.

I gave each of my models a t shirt (or not in one case) in which they would place a word or phrase onto it which they thought best described themselves or how they want to be seen. I also wanted to capture the word or phrase in the way the photo was shot.

This will hopefully become a major project involving possibly lots more different models taking place over the course of this year. I would to thank Alex Vasquez, Bjorn Thomassen and Elyse Meena for taking part. If you want to join in and help me create more and more photos like these please send me a message. darrenharrington@hotmail.co.uk

Collaboration with Andrew Hiles

Ulterior – for a narrative photography project, we decided that rather than go for the orthodox methods of creating a story from start to end, we would create a story in which each photograph would jump in and out of the story at certain points.

Myself and Andrew Hiles, chose to split up and take one day in which we would take photos fitted around the theme – in this case the word ‘Ulterior’ and piece together our different photos together to make one underlying story.

The word ‘Ulterior’ means something hidden behind what is evident and so for our narrative we decided on the idea that someone was in a dark place searching for a way out – in this case the light/saviour

Black and White photography was the order of the day as we felt using colour distracted from the idea of dark/light.
