In terms of my final project, I think I'd like to experiment with various expansions: working with a wider age group, maybe get some of my parents' or grandparents' stories, or a young kid's, maybe giving a more complete portrayal of subjects (actually covering all 13 scars on one friend for instance--I myself would probably provide a plethora of stories). I definitely enjoy this sort of macro-portraiture and would like to do more. (I don't know if that exists or if I just made up that term.) The relationship between portraiture and personal narrative is also something I've enjoyed exploring, and I feel requires further investigation in the future when I have the opportunity to do so.
I remember I found the article we read on smiling in portraiture intriguing. It definitely makes me want to examine my portraiture folder in that light, and is something I believe I will continue to at least think about while taking portraits in the future.
