| Begi Ah Lam : Proof sheet ~ Samoan |
This is Begi Ah Lam a year 11 Samoan boy. Begi is one of my models that I'm going to use to show the idea of identity of where you come from and his perspective as a young Samoan boy in society. Begi is 15 years old and is one three kids. He is involved in many things in school and in the community. He attends church on Sundays and is heavily involved in his church band.

This is a contact sheet of the photos I took of my sister yesterday. Some of these photos I have realised that I have incorporated some of Sarah De-Winne's and Bettina Von Zwehl's idea of fashion photography and psychological states in everyday life, through identity.

| Hans Eijkelboom |
Hans Eijkelboom (1949) is a Dutch photographer who uses himself to investigate the influence of appearance and clothing on the relationship between the individual and identity. Eijkelboom gradually changed into the relationships between identity and worldview as he looked for a method to visualize how repeated daily observations and experiences slowly form our view on the world. Over the years, Hans Eijkelboom has dealt mainly with the relationship between the individual and masses ina globalizing society. Eijkelboom's work majorly forms a photo book. Eijkelboom has published over mor than 50 books and publications; his latest being, Portraits & Cameras 1949-2009, 10 Euro Outfits, Amsterdam by Numbers and New York by Numbers. In 2007 he exhibited at Foam with Paris-New York-Shanghai.These are some of his work:

Her work is an outgoing enquiry into the possibilities of portraiture and its fine subtleties. Each of her work aims to enhance psychological states in everyday life using controlled conditions to search for some note of perfect balance in which the sense of an intimate humanity might be revealed.
These are some of her work:
