A Day in the Life

  • Choose one day this week to document fully - from the moment you awake, until right before falling asleep. 

  • Aim to take one photo an hour, at the least. If you’re documenting a day where you’re sitting at your work desk for 8 hours, for instance, try to find new viewpoints for each photo (close-ups of your keyboard, mug, wide shots of your set-up, etc). 

  • Cull those photos down to no more than 10 photos that sum up your day. 

  • Cull further to three shots: an establishing, a context, and an environmental shot.

  • Choose one which will be your hero image, fully encapsulating your day.

  • Post the three shots, and indicate which is your hero image. If one of the three isn’t your hero image (though, it most likely will be), post that shot along with the other 3. 

Include a short write up about the process, specifically how you approached the three shots and why you chose the image you did for your hero shot.
