Photo-Shoot Planning

I would like my photography to have an inspiring impact upon the reader as I would like the fashion element of it to stand out and influence the audience to want to look like my model. I think photography in a fashion magazine is extremely important in order to advertise different styles which may appeal to my audience. For my magazine I have planned to photograph my friend, Hannah. I have also started to think about angles and shots I could use to make the most of of the photos. I have discussed the photo-shoot with Hannah to make sure she is happy with it and to see If she had any further questions about it although she seemed more than happy to begin with it as she is comfortable around a camera.

I haven't yet decided whether I will be including props in my photographs although I feel as if i won't really need them as my models costume should be the main focus rather than anything else.

I will make sure I choose the right colours to appear in my photographs in order for them to match with the colour scheme of my magazine. I will need quite a natural lighting when taking my photographs, although I may also take some in quite a dark room with a flash on to see which I prefer.

My shoot will take place downstairs in my house near a large window, for natural lighting. When editing my photo I will then remove the background of my photograph and choose an appropriate colour.

My model will be dressed in a summery outfit with bright, glowing makeup to fit in with the season. My model is interested in makeup and beauty therefore has no problem experimenting with how she looks for the shoot.
