1. How did I take my photos?

2. • All of my images used are original and all
taken by me. For this, I needed to plan my
photo shoot with care and consideration to
ensure the best quality and thought out
images for my magazine pages.

3. • The photographs I have taken for my media product
were specially arranged by myself in a photo shoot.
• Many of the things I had to consider when planning
my photo shoot were:
- The environment they were taken in. My images
have to capture the interest of the target audience,
therefore the photo shoot must take place in a
relevant or thriving place. I chose a lightly wooded
area because the colours would go well with the
colour scheme I chose and also it is a simple area
that is different than just taking a photo in a studio.

4. • Another aspect I had to take into
consideration was the model I chose. The
model must resemble the cover celebrity I
use so I chose a red haired girl as the
model to make it seem more realistic in
comparison to my celebrity on the front
cover, ‘Florence and the Machine’
• Clothing used also has to be relevant to the
genre of the magazine which is why I chose
more indie fashion as opposed to really
girly clothes.

5. Equipment used:
The camera I used was the Nikon D3100.
This is a high quality DSLR camera which
has given me good results with the
pictures.

6. • For extra photographs taken I used my
own compact camera the Nikon coolpix. It
still produces a good quality photograph
but is easier to use when taking a photo
that will be smaller on your magazine
page for example an image for a contents
page.
