You can call me Sir.
Edit My Images
Yes
I'm doing a short photography course at a local college and have to produce 12 images at the end of it for submission. I could submit any old 12 images provided they fit the same category but rather than take the easy route I'de really like to produce 12 images that form a cohesive body of work.

I'm currently running a few ideas through my head but one that came to me tonight was to base it on the paranoia surrounding photography so

1. I'm a photographer not a terrorist
2. I'm a photographer not a peadophile
3. I'm a photographer and i've run out of ideas.........

So can any of you inspire me to fill ideas 3-12 or is it feasable or even worthwhile to to try and shoot six photos of each of these two ideas?

I'm a photographer, not a wedding photographer?

Quite a topical one at the moment :D
 
Cheers Nathan, that protest and the cafepress clothing were my inspiration for the project but I'm going for the staged portrait thing rather than the social documentary angle.
 
Cheers mate (sorry don't know your name) tht's not a bad idea, now I've just got to come up with a concept.
 
There's got to be 10 things worse than a Photographer out there if that is what you are getting at, so try Merchant Banker, Mugger, Traffic Warden, Dentist, Politician, Drug dealer, Alternative PC Comedienne, Lollipop Lady, Bailiff, Oh I'm running short of ideas here, but there's 9 to be going on with.
 
sorry diggerz I think you've missed the point a bit:lol:
 
I'm a photog', not a politician - should enable you to photograph any vaguely topical subject with it being on subject.
 
I'm a photographer not a camera. (i.e. I'm actually human too!)
I'm a photographer not a miracle worker. (and/or magician?)
I'm a photographer not a judge. (i.e. I shoot what I see without passing judgement on the subject matter. e.g. street brawl, beggar, drunk, boxing match, fox hunt etc)

Hmph it's late. :thinking: :help:

I'll try and think of something sensible later.

i like those ideas, added to the terrorist and P**** ideas i realyl can't htink of anything else though, sorry
 
I'm a photographer, not a peeping-tom.
I'm a photographer, not a trespasser.

You could finish up with something like "I'm a photographer, that's all.".
 
I think I am a photographer , therefore I am a photographer ‘

With apologies to Descartes
 
.... not an image maker...
 
I'm a photographer, not a protester?
 
Cheers for the input everyone. I think what I'm going to do is go with four headings and produce three images for each. At the minute it's terrorist, peadophile, wedding photographer and pervert.

Thanks again.
 
I'm a photographer not a designer!
I'm a photographer not a journalist!
I'm a photographer not a criminal!
 
I'm a photographer, not a pervert (Glamour)
I'm a photographer, not a bird spotter (Wildlife)
I'm a photographer, not an amatuer (If you have your own business)
I'm a photographer, doesnt mean i'm not an artist (about the age old idea that photographers are failed artists etc)

I'm out of ideas now
