Scott Kelleher, THE LIBRARIAN (PEOPLE 2023)

Whilst visiting Goulburn with a friend earlier in the year we struck upon an old bookstore, Argyle Emporium. Always camera at hand, I found myself in my element when Annu reluctantly agreed to play muse fore me. Books and photography, plus a willing model. What else could one ask for? I think the last photograph in the series is my favourite and could stand alone with its own story. However, I chose to create a narrative with the four chosen images of our day. It was a very organic and spontaneous shoot. The day commenced with some shopping, with Annu's purchases displayed in third shot, bookstore, food, and finally to our Air BnB. Only available light used, except final shot where we placed a bedside lamp under the kitchen bench.
