This was a documentary conceptual project I completed for my junior year photography class' "people" unit. Each friend of mine that was recruited to have their photo taken was directed by me to stand in a place I chose, and told strike a neutral pose. This spreads attention from only the subject but also their surroundings, giving a sense of looking into a museum-built life-sized diorama of middle-class teenage home life here in Marin. After I took their portrait, I took pictures in locations based on where they were standing (On either axis of the subject, either east/west or north/south). This was done so that once the photos were together in a triptych, a general theme of their own slice of the outdoors could be understood by the viewer.
