Artist: Lauren Greenfield Title: Kids + Money Date: Unavailable __@http://www.laurengreenfield.com/index.php?p=7W0TZ05W__ This documentary of kids with money gave me ideas of how i could shoot my project, Newington Wealth in Teens. One of the photos that really stood out to me was the close up of the boy wearing earings. I like they way that it shows a specific item that means something to him and looks like it cost money. In addition to that i also like the picture of the two girls standing in the doorway drinking a coke nonchalantly. I like the variation in the way she shoots the pictures and how each of them tell a different story.

Artist: Sarah & Chris Rhoads Title: Lifestyle Date: Unavailable __@http://wearetherhoads.com/lifestyle/__ This piece of work doesn't specifically tie in with my intended them, however it captures the people in their natural state as themselves. This is helpful to me because it shows me how taking pictures of someone can be done while make it look authentic and not just posed. In addition to the way they shoot, the lighting they use also helps in capturing a natural, happy feeling.

Title: In Praise of the 'Powderpuff Derby' Date: Unavailable http://life.time.com/culture/the-powder-puff-derby/#1 This collection of pictures doesn't tie into my subject but i do believe that it is a good documentary. It shows/tells a story of those involved with the derby in the 1940's and what they went through. My goal in my project is to capture the lives of teens in Newington and essentially tell the story of their lives.
