Cassandra aka Cassie (Cleo)

There is a thriving arts scene in Ottawa, creative types are at work stretching the bounds of one's imagination. Social media drives many of these events and provides a window in to what's happening in the city.
I attended a pop up event, The Individuality Project which was being held in Ottawa's Hintonburg neighbourhood.
Meet Cassie, aka Cassandra and @cleoflaneur on Instagram, a talented young photographer whose work was the star of the evenings event.
Cassie was born in Ottawa and is studying Art History and Theory at the University of Ottawa, she has always been an artistic and creative soul with her Individuality Project just another step along the way.
The project contains a number of elements, first off each person highlighted on the collage is black, they cross all ages, careers and nationalities. They are pictured in their workplaces, restaurants, social events etc. As she moves on with this project the emphasis on the participants will change.
The major challenge for Cassie was her decision to shoot with film as her media as opposed to using a digital camera.
Cassie explained that using film changed her perspective when framing and composing her shots, you only have 35 frames so they have to count.
I must say the results are outstanding and I look forward to viewing further editions of the Individuality Project.

Thank you Cassie, it was a pleasure meeting you and who knows one day we may get an opportunity to collaborate.
This is portrait #124 in my Human Family Project.
