This document provides ideas for photos for a magazine's front cover and double page spread (DPS). For the front cover, it suggests that a plain white background or full-body shots with shadows are most effective. For the DPS, outdoor settings and varied positioning of models are recommended over studio shots to provide contrast and interest. Downward angles and rustic backdrops can also make models appear vulnerable or highlight their costumes.

2. Front Cover Ideas White background makes model stand out and looks classy. If the background image for the front cover is plain this will also be easier for my magazine colour shceme.This medium close up of my model is also effective because it gives the reader a clear view of her face but also some of her clothing.The shadow in the background is also effective .

3. Front Cover Ideas With the white background used in a full view of the model it creates a clearer shadow and this also looks quite effective.This pose is effective for a male model because it is quirky but also cheeky giving a very cute “boy band” look.The use of a full body shot also gives the reader a full view of the model and their clothing

4. DPS IdeasThe use of outside scenery in the DPS I feel is effective in comparison to in the studio because it gives a contrast from the front cover and also makes the shot look more natural.I also think the levels in this shot between the different models is effective because it makes the image look more interesting

5. DPS IdeasThe rustic background in this shot shows a good contrast with the costume of my modelThis downwards view onto my model also gives her a vulnerable look and makes her also look innocent
