Contemplating A Photoshoot

I've been recently thinking about a project that I wanted to do about a year ago but didn't know what I actually wanted to do. The basic idea was that I would take old photos of me and my friends and put it all in one giant frame to focus on the people I truly love for strange reasons.

Now thinking deeper about it, I got this strange idea to take pictures of them in black and white. Something about B&W photos somehow make them all look good in a frame, no matter how strange the frame is.

Then since the engine started running, I thought about it some more and decided that I wanted to get them in poses that brings out my idea of what they mean to me. All because of this thought, it has got me analysing all my friends once again. Now I wonder if they realise what they actually mean to me or will they only know until I give them the idea the day I want to take their picture.

Do it! I think it's a great idea! I can only imagine how you will make people like Amy and Eddie pose so just do it. And got lots of ideas online. I think if you do it in black and white and keep them in separate frames but hang them in a bunch on the wall it will look good, sort of what I did with the photos of Brendan at work if you can remember...
