Using a documentary photography approach, I capture the images as they unfold. By not planning a set idea when doing a shoot, all of the images were spontaneous which i feel has a greater meaning than if they were 'set up'. I wanted to be parallel with the inspiration of Ravillious and his images by exploring how black and white can change the tone of a shoot. I wanted all of my images to feel coherent and as a collection of images, I feel like I have successfully achieved this.
I wanted all of my images to be coherent therefore I put them in the same format by cropping them into squares. I eliminated any dead space I felt did not add to the image. I wanted to show the lives of the animals as Ravillious did.
