Self-Portraits by Meryl Vedros Photographer Meryl Vedros shares some of her self protraiture and reflects upon its meaning to her. Article rating: 7.25

These are more than images to me, they document memories in which I am being my entire self. When I approach an environment that triggers my creativity I know it feels personal and I immediately want to be a part of it.

My Canon G7 is always by my side. As for the self-timer feature, we have become great friends.  It allows me to be more personal and scope out compositions on my own. I can then run into the shot with an unplanned emotion on my face and see it all come together. It's quite a beautiful process that has become the most excitement I get in an entire day. These images work as a whole because they all involve a unique process that is personal to me, (the photographer and model).

It's a very personal way to shoot because the photographer is no longer commanding people, it is all trial and error with the movement of the body. Because once the environment is explored its all about finding a place for me to fit in.

	So different and not appealing to me....poor composition...as if a first trial (and miss) of using the self portrait feature....but, if it satisfies the photographer, more power to her. Posted by: Lynn Dec 1, 2007 @ 1:12 AM EST
