People Brief- Final 8 Environmental Portraits

I have finished my final 8 portrait's for this brief and I have focused on Photographing people in a working environment. I have been out on the street's and in to shops and bars photographing people in work. I have got a variety of different locations and together I think that they have answered the Brief.

Image Three

This is Lynne who works for Sky Retail in Bury Shopping Centre. I have tried to capture her in her working environment using the background of two Sky billboards whilst also capturing some of the detail of the shopping centre to establish the setting.

Image Four

This is Zoe who works in Wallis. As I am not a Wallis shopper I used my friend to go in shopping and followed her and politely asked this young lady if I could photograph her. I wanted her behind the counter as this is her working environment.

Image Five

This is my Portrait of Paul who is a Butcher. As Paul was very busy I had to take the image very quickly whilst he kindly agreed to be photographed. Although I would have liked meat in the shot I had to take in to consideration it was a busy Saturday morning and Paul was very busy.
