These are some of my favorites from my mass production portrait series.
I tried to capture certain emotions from each person and then chose which one looked the most real and raw. Some of the emotions being portrayed are silly, but i think i ultimately captured each individual's personality in the way I wanted to.
Like Ryan McGinley, I wanted to take the environment and background out of the photograph so that the image was solely about the individual and nothing else was distracting from that.
I used vignetting and a few photo filters when editting, so my images are not as raw as McGinley's, but I wanted to use the vignetting to draw the eye in and used certain color filters to give them a cool tone and make them all look visually similar and cohesive.
