Lee Jeffries Is a photographer who captures true simplification to capture
 real and striking emotions. Lee Jeffries photograph use tone and texture
to portray the power of human emotions and hardship. It is this exact
method and ability i will need to create my project. Lee Jeffries talks about
the eyes been the starting point and gateway to emotion and i must
incorporate this in my own work.

Lee Jeffries is another photographer whos aim is to raise awareness for a
social issue. Lee Jeffries will be a strong inspiration as I try and raise
awareness for my social issue. Lee Jeffries states that he tries to isolate his subjects to create timeless photograths. He achieves this with his use of shadows and light I must try and implement these methods and techniques into my own photographs to create emotional pieces.

I hope to achieve a similar of Jeffries by over coming boundaries and breaking the fear of people with this issue. Most people are fearful of it and go silent when it is brought up but I hope to show that le with mental health are nothing to fear and are no different than any other person.

He uses close ups to create simplification and light to brighten up the subjects, this is important as he changes most of his photographs to black and white and using lights helps the contrast between the colours with the filters on. The photographs with colour shows incredible detail in the tone and texture of the subjects skin.
