# Feet-Focused Photography Tom Robbins Tells a Story Through Family and Landscape By Andrew Robertson | Published 2012-05-16 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-robbins References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/txblacklabel/feet-first-photography-28m7) & [tomrobinsonphotography](http://www.tomrobinsonphotography.com/feet-first/) 'Feet First' is a [series of pictures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) by London-based photographer Tom Robbins centering around the juxtaposition between feet in the foreground and colorful landscapes in the background. The contrast between what takes you to a location and the location itself makes for a surprisingly compelling narrative, telling a story of travel and adventure. As the pictures progress, a story about a family begins to evolve. One picture takes place on a bed and involves a brand new pair of feet. The photographs evolve from two pairs of feet in [foreign landscapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour) to three pairs of feet, indicating the third member to the group -- Robbins's baby daughter. Whether the background is of a pool setting at a resort or on a beach with the sun setting, the real adventure is the one shared by the growing family. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Storytelling Photography:** There is an opportunity for photographers to embrace storytelling through creative compositions that incorporate various elements. - **Personalized Photography:** There is an opportunity for photographers to create personalized visual narratives that capture the beauty of a specific moment or memory. - **Narrative-based Photography:** There is an opportunity for photographers to develop a unique narrative using their photos with sequential storytelling. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Photography:** Photographers can embrace a new form of storytelling through creative compositions that offer a fresh perspective. - **Travel and Leisure:** Travel and leisure companies can use personalized photography to promote their services and inspire people to travel. - **Family and Parenting:** Family-focused industries can use narrative-based photography to convey their brand message and connect with their audience emotionally. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Family-Centric Footwear Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joyful-chaos-family.md) - [Animated Footwear Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-your-feet.md) - [Skateboard-Themed Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rabbit-hole-1.md) - [Photography Project Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1.md) - [British Youth-Culture Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-and-away.md) - [Personal Nostalgic Photo Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holy-ohio.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Travel Photography Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour.md) - [Public Art Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith.md)
