This photographer is called Vee Speers, she likes to take photos that are different and edit in images that change how the whole photograph looks. Alot of her photos are just people placed in photos that describe different situations.
This photo was taken from a series of photos called 'Thirteen' which were taken during her daughters 13th year to resemble purity and the growing pains of her teenager. Speers was trying to show her daughters transition from girl to woman.
Factual
This is a photo of her daughter against a pale background holding two black birds. She is wearing white and looks very pale.
Context
This collection is about the transition from child to adult, it tries to represent the difficulties and the nice things about change. All of the photos in this collection 'thirteen' are pale with amounts of contrast. I think this is trying to show that even the purist things are inviting to dark things (the ravens)
Technical
I think this photo was created by very simply placing her daughter in front of a pale background, and considering her daughters and the children she uses in her photos are very photogenic she just photos them using high brightness levels. Some of her photos are then later edited to make the photo more pale and to add in certain aspects that make the photo more interesting to look at.
Aesthetic
I love the look of all of 'thirteen' and another one of Vee Speers' collection 'the birthday party' because they all beautifully merge into the same pattern, but at the same time are all unique. They all have a certain story behind them but still give you space to interpret what is actually going on. All of them are pale and bright, representing purity and youth amazingly. They all seem so innocent and I think she has perfected her own style.
