Laurent Roch inspiration // Street

The project that Roch has named 'everyday' is made up of images of the 'everyday' world and life of different people. I find it interesting that he has images ranging from people glammed up looking as if they are walking along a red-carpet event during Cannes film festival, to people going about their general day activities and routines. I like this project of Roch's because it capture the everyday life of people which is a nice aspect to his work.

   As you can see from the images above Roch catches all aspects of the 'everyday' life of people in all different places; this to me is very powerful and interesting  as you see the type of things in his images quite a bit, but until you really think, look, and experiment with street photography most people probably wouldn't have thought of taking images like this.

I used this project of Roch's as inspiration for some of my work. Whilst I was in London with my mum not too long ago, I was taking pictures. This project worked well as inspiration because as I was walking around I could quickly capture something that was going on around me at the time.

I feel as if my images, which are below, capture the 'everyday' life of certain places in London and have carried along with Roch's project work. These are just images I got while walking to certain areas of London or being in main tourist spots. Each image, like Roch's work, is unique and different to the one before this then portrays more of a varied look on life within the English capital city.
