Kidnapped (Scanner as Camera)



















I started this project going in a completely different manner. At first I wanted to show my fashion side, or portray my recently broken heart. Though I quickly realized I was not inspired with my ideas involving fashion, and I wasn't necessarily ready to explore my breakup.


I have recently become obsessed with the television show Dexter, and now have a new love for serial killers. This was the inspiration for these photos. The fear behind being kidnapped, and brutalized. 

It was interesting having to lean over the scanner, instead of how you would look at a camera. It added a different feel to the photos which I really enjoyed.  This project was a lot of fun to do. Defiantly different from the photos I have taken in the past. I was very excited to explore my darker side.

  2. I have to agree with Caitlin. Although the blood looks a bit too red.
