The first assignment for the Creative Photography class I am in this semester at UCM was “Self Portrait”. Being a “creative” class obviously a standard self-portrait wouldn’t do. Rather than doing a set of portraits about me and what I do I decided to do a series about who I might have become if I had made different choices, associated with different people, and been raised with different family values.
This portrayal of myself as a “Redneck” is intended to be a satire. So the series is a lie about myself but like any good lie there is a bit of truth to it.
