I’ve been enjoying manipulating my images a little more, zooming in and cropping to create a background or frame. I really like this post of my little cousin, as it fits with my interest in family and the colours work so well together. It’s light and fun and I felt it was perfect for the …

My Instagram Review: Post 15
This is my most recent post. I took a week out as I didn’t feel very motivated or excited about my older images but I decided to look through some old holiday photos and came across these. The lovely thing about my archive is that the majority of the images I have always wanted to …
My Instagram Review: Post 14

My Instagram Review: Post 13
As the weather gets nicer I thought it would be good to reflect on past summers and the joyful memories created.

Due to the current circumstances, I decided to start posting some archival images that I have always loved but that didn’t have a place in my projects. I thought this would be a nice change for followers and also illustrate the more causal, playful element of my work. I simply captioned the work with the …
My Instagram Takeover Reflection
Overall I found the takeover challenging but really positive. It encouraged me to share work that I probably wouldn’t have wanted to as I felt it wasn’t finished or ready for an audience. I also gained more experience with captions and engaging with an audience. The conversational tone was easy and comfortable so something I …

This was my final post for my takeover. I decided to post my WIP as I feel its important to share what you are working on and illustrate that work sometimes takes a long time to come together. In these troubling times I felt that my work concerning nature has been so beneficial for me …
