A couple of years ago, my grandmother felt that the time was right to finally sell the house that she had lived in for over 40 years, where she raised her kids and made a home for her extended family. I spent the first five years of my life living here, and came back to live here when my grandfather got sick. After he passed, it became a home for just my grandmother and myself, and it was bittersweet for us to decide to move on.

"A Moving Project" became a goal I had to document the last couple of weeks that we had in the house. I wanted to focus on the state of change that we saw reflected in ourselves. I decided that in order to facilitate a better focus on the house I needed some rules and restrictions. Film would be the medium, and I would use my Yashica 6x6 square-format camera. That being said, I felt that I needed some more rules.

Only natural light, coming through windows and bouncing off walls.
No handheld shooting. I wanted to take my time and set up the camera with care and focus.
No tripod. I needed something to stabilize the camera, and decided on using the house as my tripod.
The camera had to be touching either a part of the house or a box containing part of the house, as the photo was taken.
I couldn't move anything. I had to wait until things were moved by others if I wanted a better shot.
