FIlm photography contact sheet portraits


Assignment three, portraits that tell a story. I went both directions, straight up portraits and capturing a well-defined sequence of events.

I imagine the four prints we turn in should be from the same roll, both have a few candidates but the photojournalism ones are more varied. Of course, the following are just blown up copies of the contact sheet frames.
