Self Portrait competition winners!

The winners of our latest Self Portrait themed competition have been announced…!

First place has been awarded to Rosie Berwick, with her fantastic Photogram.

We asked Rosie what her inspiration behind this image was….
“I hate having my photo taken! This was an idea formed out of an exhibition at the V&A a couple of years ago called Shadow Catchers and a cameraless photography course i recently did. For this picture, I took a photo of my shadow and printed it onto paper. I then cut out a template of the negative space around me and exposed it as a photogram in the dark room. I like the way it doesn’t entirely make sense and makes the viewer question how it was done ( well maybe only if they are interested in photography!)”

Rosie has won a mounted 20×24″ print from The Print Space – www.theprintspace.co.uk

Second place goes to Estelle Vincent with her Photo Booth snaps. Estelle used an old fashioned style photo booth to create her image, and as a photographer herself she enjoys working with film and alternative processes.
Very imaginative and unique Estelle, we love it!

Third place went too Claire Ottley. Claire went for the more classic self portrait shot, but she added a great creative twist by using her phone and some ageing effects to give that extra boost to the vintage image she was portraying, with her faux fur coat and bright red lipstick.
Stunning!

Both Estelle and Claire have won a 20×24″ print of their choice from The Print Space.
