Day 1: 16/06/2011
Tranquility

Day 1

I decided a while back that I wanted to start a 365 photography project Seeing others inspired me to take this step in photography, as i have been at university studying illustration the last three years but leaning more towards photography by the end of my degree and even doing my dissertation on documentary photography.
I wanted the starting day to be a day which meant something to me so I decided that today, the 16th June, which would have been my Mother's birthday who sadly passed away nearly 3 years ago, would be fitting. This project is in her memory and a gift to her.
The main photograph i have chosen today was taken in Central Park in New York city. At the moment I am on a 5 week holiday staying with my Aunty Parvaneh and Uncle Richard. I came here with my partner David and our daughter Rosina. The photography is of a small motor powered boat which people of all ages were sailing around a pond in the middle of the park. It is a peaceful photograph full of tranquility, hence the title. In the middle of the big city there is peace found by all in this wonderful park.
The two photographs below show the bulk of what I did today which was a photo-shoot, which I did for my Uncle Richard, photographing
the filming of a video being made for the Kickstarter website for his product Tricky notebooks. It was a long day but good experience
documenting a film being made.

I have realized that i blogged my first day as the main post, so now day one of my project will always be at the top of the blog and the rest will go in order from newest post to oldest, just so you don't get confused!

Day 14: Sam's surprise

Today was the day of Sam's surprise birthday party, it started off by going to birmingham this morning meeting Lauren and shopping, then we had lunch and went to her house to wait for Ella who was a little late which meant Mandie was in Stoke before us, sadly/luckily she got completly lost and ended up in Hanley which meant we had time to get to Stoke. The pram didn't fit in ella car so I ended up leaving all the nappies in it by mistake. When we got to stoke Chris had taken Sam out and we let ourself into their house hiding our stuff. Mandie still hadn't arrived lost again, so she had to asked many people before I decided to go and find her. Then the plan could kick in Chris brought Sam back and just as they arrived we hid in the cupboard annd left Rosina in the hall. So when Sam came in she saw Rosina there, knowing i'd be somewhere Chris told her to go to the freezer and all 4 of us jumped out scaring her :) We then took her out for dinner and meet Dave. Now its party time.
   Today's picture is of Ella, Lauren and Rosina at dinner.
