Letter to Parents...
Children should see themselves in pictures; just as they are.
Documentary
A year long adventure in photojournalism happening at your centre.
Dear Parents,
You are participating in the Documentary Project! Which means, throughout the year, your child(ren) will be photographed on select dates using a photojournalistic approach. Children are photographed “just as they are” and the focus is on the extraordinary things that happen throughout the course of a typical day.
I am a photographer with a background in early childhood education. I have photographed children for over 15 years. I may have photographed portraits of your child(ren) and maybe even your family! I have recently discovered family photojournalism and because it's so amazing; I'm taking it into early learning and childcare centres! The images made through documenting align with what is most relevant in early childhood. So, while I am photographing during play, activities and transitions for the ECE’s at your daycare to use in curriculum. You will also see the result is art that you will want framed on your walls at home.
