Where were these photographs taken?
These photographs were taken in Victoria Park and around Truro centre.

Some words about the shots…
Building on my style a bit more. Experimented a little on these images by putting red Sharpie on my clingfilm as well as occasionally putting my fingers over the lens to add colour.

In terms of my process, I can definitely see imperfections coming from adapting my style and maybe that’s something I need to work on or something that I just need to accept because soft focus and imperfections are kind of a bit part of the vibe.

With these shots we tried to create a bit of a longing vibe which I think fits with the style of the photographs. Holly was great to work with, I just let them do their thing in terms of poses and just knew that it would work out fine!
