Summer Documented: A Photographic Scavenger Hunt

This summer, I joined together with a group of photographers on a photographic scavenger hunt. A mission to purposefully document summer.

This project came about just as I was finishing my Huppy Hours project and it was exactly what I needed to pull me out of a artistic rut. We were given a list of 20 prompts (plus 1 bonus prompt) to search for and interpret as we traveled through our summer. Some of the ideas were easy and commonly found throughout our daily lives. Others I had to plan for or even stretch the meaning a little bit, but we got there.

Here are my images; my interpretation of the prompts. Follow the link at the end of this post to see the collaborative project of all the artists. It was so inspiring to see everyone’s vision.
