When I Grow Up

  • Laura Hoy
When I Grow Up... Is a portrait project focused on what children what to be when they grow up, showcasing this through both photography and illustration. I ensured that the kids were involved in every step of the process, getting to know each of them before inviting then to be photographed, asking if they wanted to bring a prop to represent the job the would like to do. After some post production I showed then the drawings I created and asked f they liked them and what colours they would have on the pictures.
These images 'represent the future these children want its only fair for them to have a reasonable amount of input into what they look like.
