My practice draws from themes surrounding childhood, freedoms, existence, time, motherhood and feminism. My work represents the uncanny nature of contrasting themes in an attempt to move and engage the viewer. With my interest in childhood, journeys, capturing time and contemplating existence, my work provokes a subtle intrigue within dark lit scenes, in contrast with the innocence and playful imagination of a child’s world. With a passion for creating narratives within photography, it has led me to set up shoots on location, where my selected young models are staged with plenty of room for improvisation. Influenced by like minded fine art photographers, Gregory Crewdson and Julia Fullerton-Batten, I aim to create a dramatic, cinematic feel to my photography with a film-still like quality through the use of photoshop. @Sjennifer__c
