Three Short Films and a Series of Images
The idea of photographing and documenting the Funeral directors was one that I found fascinating, this was mainly due to the lack of images seen on the subject previously and the little amount I knew about how they operate. I set out with the intention of creating a ‘traditional’ documentary series of images, but at the same time, a body of work that could be easily shaped into which ever output I found fit. Establishing the project concept quite quick was important to me, aiming to give myself the maximum amount of time in which to research and question funeral customs. Using books that highlighted British funeral rituals and articles that display social media’s influence on the documentation of wakes allowed me to fully inform my work.
During my time documenting those in the funeral industry I was able to photograph multiple funerals, pallbearers, crematorium workers, gravediggers and the deceased. I was fortunate to be able to photograph the preparation for a funeral, allowing me to see and capture the most sensitive moments. Whilst continuing to photograph the funeral directors and local services I was continually asking questions, always wanting to know more and find out the reasoning why things were done in such a way. This body of work has allowed me to give a compelling insight into the funeral industry, revealing the options we have after a death and the options most of us choose. Interviewing those who desire to work alongside death has hopefully provided a better explanation of why they are interested and intrigued by death, exploring their personal understandings of bereavement and the afterlife.
Mei's neighbors keep a lot of a furry friends around, this small guy jumped out of the corner while I was about to change lenses. So much joy and so much to live for.

Part of a photo-documentary series on my mother's death. It's not a subject oft explored, nor talked about - all the more reason, I figured, to cover it - plus it was an outlet to explore my own emotions and grief..... even at the time I clicked. We're all going to die one day. However, we British (generally) do everything we can to avoid talking or thinking about it ... silly, really.

But the Police blocked the way to the Blue House(President's official residence) by using Car-Wall. However, the citizens and demonstrators who blocked their way to parade, did not claimed to Police. But they only said "Peaceful Demonstraion is the best."
I really don't konw what they want about.

Group of people from Rajasdhan moved to chennai for their life and living. They do idols with Plaster of Paris. They make small to large idols of Ganesha, Murugan, Saibaba, Krishna and so on. There are around 40 families settled in Manali, Chennai. It is difficult to document their activities in a short time I spend with them. But, I could manage to get some shots.
