Front cover photos

I used my sister Heidi for the front cover student. I took the photos in front of a white door, as I knew I wanted to use a white background. I went through a few photos before I got the one I wanted. There were more than I have posted on here, but I have used these four to demonstrate how they progressed.

I used a blue folder to fit with the colour scheme. I decided Heidi would wear a wooly jumper, as it is a winter edition of the magazine. However, the jumper alone did not stand out enough, so I added a scarf to the outfit. I changed my mind on how she should hold the folder, as I thought I could use that as a background for the 'snowman competition' article, so I moved the folder up. This hid the scarf, so I added earmuffs, which would easily allow the image to look wintery.  I also changed the photo to more of a close-up, as I felt this would look more suitable.

The last image of these four is the image I decided to use.
