Alice In wonderland

I love Alice In wonderland!!!!!!!!!!! I've read it, watched it, and been inspired by it!! some of my very first photographs were inspired by this magical yet mad world. So please scroll down and have a look at my journey through wonderland!!!!!!!!!

so these image below are some of the first pictures I ever took with an SLR camera I must have been about 12 or 13 and I'm the first at admit there crap..

I'm not entirely sure why I created a music cover for this......I WAS 12 AND BORED OK......But that was offically my first ever Alice in Wonderland Inspired picture. 

Then came the obsession with the warp brush...

I must have been about 14 when I took the above image. At the time I was dead chuffed. Peers asked me to make them edits, and it received 22 comments on Facebook. However, now when I look at it I get that cringe-worthy feeling 

OH THE SHAME. 

My latest Alice pictures are below. I think there's been a change in standard 

 Let me know what you think. Fellow lovers of Alice, Hatter, Doormouse and Hare. check out the work of Elena Kalis and Alice underwater. IT'S AMAZING

The more sinister side of Zoe

I'm sat here procrastinating,... supposedly doing some health and social care task but meh... I thought I'd share with you lovely people some more of my photography from my A level
this stuff is a bit darker and what I prefer to do. 

"Never to wake" Zoetrope Photograhy 2012

These Images are taken from a shoot based upon the work of another artist, so I'm not entirely sure who it was. the theme of the shoot was very much vintage. I studied Victorian death portraitures ( where the dead were commemorated in photography) this contributed largely to the shoot. The Model Is Miss A Rose. My little sister who was bullied on many occasion to be my model!!

If I wait- Zoetrope photography- 2012

"Ring-a-ring-a-rosie" Zoetrope photography 2012

As I recall my teacher wasn't too impressed by this shoot.....She preferred happy pretty photography

Thanks for reading!! If you've enjoyed my images please leave me a little message!

Time machine madness!

Don't you just love that feeling when your delving through your things; maybe cleaning up or searching for something else, and you find forgotten treasures?  Old photos that make you stop and think " Dear lord above, why did no one stop me from looking like that" Or pieces of work/art that you were really proud of but actually have the same intellectual and artistic range of a well educated 2 year old. The wave of  Self pity and embarrassment is just delightful. OHHHH THE SHAME!!!!!!!!!

This Blog is the internet equivalent, I posted twice and entirely forgot about it! for 2 years.....The one day I was trying to figure out the complexities of connecting my YouTube and gmail accounts and Woosh, click , bang! I stumble upon Zoetrope photography. (You have  no idea, NO IDEA, how long I spent trying to come up with that name! It was a form of mild mental torture). 

and looking back those posts are pretty shoddy!  I stick by my opinion of Vivien Maier her photography is breath taking and is one of my favourite photographers. But my grammar, style and spelling is atrocious. I apologise profusely to the 15 people that viewed this Blog. Hopefully 3 A levels later this has improved! 

I cringe at all forms of self advertisement, it's simply not within me to promote my self, which is why i'm often very self depreciating of my own photography work. So thank you to those brave 15 souls that ventured onto this neglected page over the course of 2 years!

I initially started this Blog because I planned to use photography to take over the world. Mwha mwha mwhaaaa. I was undertaking my A level photography and decided that maybe I would become the next Annie Lebovits or Irving Penn. But in the end I decided to follow nursing. I am a fickle person. 

I finished my A levels last year and am now working as I systematically get rejected from Universities #Loveinglife. I've decided to return to the little fledgeling that is ZTP to try and revive my photography skills and explore something that I loved. I'm by no means and expert but that's part of the fun.

So thanks 
Zoe

Just a little bragging moment- as it's just us here I got A* in my A level!!!:)
