As my first assignment in my photojournalism class with little experience, I was asked to go out in the community and find 6 random strangers and ask the question "What would you rather be doing right now?" I took their picture and this was a just three of the finished pictures.
Joe and Crew Rogers, 53
and 2
Sitting at a
table fit for a small child, Joe was enjoying a food court dinner with his son, Crew. “What would I rather be doing? Truly nothing. I’m with my only child and
we love spending time together,” Joe said. Crew joined in, pulling on his dad’s
arm and said “The trains daddy. I want to be with the trains.”
Bell Walters, 20
Leaving her apartment
after a day of class, Bell Walters had a hula-hoop in hand, ready to keep the
day going. “I’m not sure what I rather be doing. Maybe just frolicking in a
forest because I love to be outdoors and as you can see, hooping.” Bell said.
Bell tells me she enjoys hoop dancing in her apartment as her daily workout. “I
do it everyday and my roommate think it’s the coolest thing to watch.” Bell
said.
Ravel Boyce, 22
Ravel said he
could tell this was going to be a weird request when I came up to him holding camera
but didn’t mind me snapping a few pictures. After taking a customer’s order, Ravel
answered the question, what would you rather be doing right now? “I guess I
rather be reading or gardening.” Ravel said, “That’s what I really love. Two
relaxing thing that are way better then working.”
