Almost each and every one of you love your bedrooms. It’s the only place that allows one to be their true self. It’s a place to stay away from the chaos happening in the outside world. At times your room can be messy but still, it’s the best place that you’d find in the whole world. And in one way bedrooms show the real personalities of people.
Maybe that is why you find it interesting to have a glimpse of someone else’s room. So being interested in this topic photographer Barbara had created this project “American Bedrooms”. She travels around the USA capturing the bedrooms of Americans and showing how different living styles of American people can be. So scroll down to have a look at these candid photographs.

This amazing idea of photographing average Americans in their bedrooms had sparked in her mind in 2016. After seeing how her bedroom looks, she had figured out that every room tells a personal story. Afterward, she had begun to think about capturing the bedrooms of people from all around the USA.

After she shared the concept with her friends they had loved it, and she started out by photographing the rooms of her friends. At a point, you might think whether it had been easy for her to take pictures of people’s rooms. Well as she had shared with Bored Panda it had not been easy.

#16 Camille, Age 32 And Ashley, Age 31

Ashley: “If you told me 5 years ago that I would be a touring musician, married to my amazing and beautiful wife, and living happily in Portland, I would have cried tears of happiness. Never give up the fight for your version of happiness in this life. You won’t know the treasures that lie ahead until you’re there living them. With our powers combined, we can do anything.”/image credits: barbara.peacock_abedroom

She found people who were fine with this through different ways like social media and printing cards. And she only photographs people who want to be a part of this project and it’s a rule she has. She said that at first, she builds up a friendly conversation with people and she lets them know about the project. Also, she had said that she never asks anyone to do anything that they don’t want.

Janie: “Despite being raised by the same parents our upbringing was vastly different and she had it a lot harder. I wish I could have changed things but I’ve always looked up to her courage and perseverance. I wouldn’t trade her for anything in the world. She is my best friend.”/image credits: barbara.peacock_abedroom
After the images are printed the people were very excited about it and she received good feedback from her subjects and other people. This lovely project of hers has been continuing for 6 years. And she had said that it’s almost complete now and that currently, she’s looking for a publisher for the book.

Comment below and share your thoughts about this project with us.

I have been into reading, creative writing, learning different languages from my young age. Also, I’m really fond of calligraphy which I have participated in competitions and won. I was an athlete while I was schooling and I have excelled in the events I did. I have passed my O/levels and did my A/levels in the Physical science stream. Even though my passion for reading and writing never ended. Keep Reading! Keep Learning!
