Taking The Pictures

To take my main image i set up a photostudio in my kitchen at home, here is an image of the set up however i decided afterwards that i wasn't going to sit on a stall, I set up a tripod behind the lights, and then two large industrial lights either side. This set up was really easy to use and created good pictures for my magazine!



 The second image i took was of my cousin 'Stephanie Paynter' i wanted her to look very successful and 'pop' like, therefore giving her tall big bold hair, and strong dark eye makeup, the portrait shot makes her look powerful , which is what i wanted for this photo, this image will be placedo n the right hand side of the contents page.

The third image was of my friends band 'Open To Offers' they were playing at the fleece for an acoustic gig, i went along with my camera and snapped this on stage shot, this made the image look really realistic as it was a live performance and not staged. I thought that this would add a good aspect to my magazine.

 

 Here is the fourth image, this is 'Harry Moore' a very talented guitarist in my sixth form. Harry was playing at a charity gig i had organised and i took this photo of him just before the gig started, i wanted him to also look powerful and strong in the image.

Finally here is an image of my friend 'Lauren Fortune' i thought this setting would be good for a 'girl band' sort of shot, but with just the solo artist, it makes her look like someone on the front cover of an album.
