This was my first shoot, I approached this couple after briefly talking to them on the way in. The location of the fair was in a small, classroom sized, room. This left me little room to manoeuvre round the tables and left me with the corner as my only background. I had hoped to use a wide aperture to create a shallow depth of field with which to draw focus onto the subjects. The lack of distance behind them and the wall combined with 5.6 as my choice of aperture did not have desired effect.
I had originally intended to photograph all my subjects with their purchases. However for these pictures I decided to take them without any records as props, and was going to pair each picture with seperate photographs of records they had bought. In retrospect this was a bad idea, as it removes a distinctive visual element from the original idea of my pictures. From now on I will revert back to that original plan.
