Melissa Ann Pinney is another photographer that I feel is very relevant to my project. In particular, it is her project titled 'Girl Ascending' that I am interested in; she photographs girls ages nine to sixteen in their coming of age, capturing the transition from one generation into another. I find her images captivating and intriguing, with each telling its own story as well as working together as series to form a larger narrative.
"Pinney peels away the layers society has places on women, exposing joy triumph, contemplation and growth."The thing that fascinates me most about Pinney's photographs, is not only the subject but in fact her use of lighting and the way that it constructs the entire atmosphere of her images. She captures daylight in her images perfectly which compliments the subjects in her photographs greatly.
