WINNERS

In My Skin

  • Photographer
    Sophie Ellen, United Kingdom
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

In My Skin aims to promote a wider representation of identity, using personal elements to underpin the project and provide intimate perspectives to the works. Stripping everything back to just the model and I, these portraits evoke a raw essence of both the photographer and subject. Each model photographed (using a Polaroid Land Camera, expired Fujifilm FP100-C) has a personal story to tell and has collaborated with me to capture imagery, with the aim to inspire others. I only had an hour or two per model, meeting for the first time on shoot, having scouted each person through social media.
