Paired Photography Project (Part 1)

With this project I was looking at the idea of symbolism and relationships, how people can be represented by items and how the combination of such can tell you a lot about the relationship between them.

These are just a few examples of the compositions I experimented with in the early days of the project.

For the sake of simplicity I used two defining items in each photograph but each pairing of items represents more than one pair of people and their relationships.
