Though, I didn’t have much courage about the varsity of negative-photography - entering, I’ve come out, completely shocked and rejuvenated on the possibility’s and true definition of what this mode of photography is. I thought it was a quick snap, a short spark and a — photo? But it’s much, much more. Without realising it, I was taught how this photography exists in the foundation of its being. It made me want to be apart of the rapidly changing medium that really benefits everyone in the long run; photography as a whole. Negative-photography taught me the impact of images, how I should form them, how important that shot can be, the longevity of process and many more modes within it.

There were mistakes like slight overexposure, that slipped my mind at the time of capture. The actual difficulties came from my anxieties and brief experience with the photography mode in prior years. Despite my hard work in previous experience, I had always encountered an issue where my product wasn’t correctly done, likely with light-seals, that ultimately destroyed what I had worked so hard to produce, leaving me down. Going forth, I was worried about facing the same mistakes I had once made, and in that regard, presented worry that didn’t go until it I faced it. It turned out that I was fully focused and that my work, had turned out to be brilliant. The exposure was just right, the framing — perfect.

I'm very happy with how the entire series turned out. It encouraged me to brace and break my comfort zone, explore the other photography mediums and ultimately come out with some work that seriously benefitted my understanding, let alone venture into the foundation of what made photography what it is today. The fact that each photograph matters as your only chance, imposes far more meaning alas the vintage feel. I don't have many regrets about this project; just that I haven't done it enough!
