Contents page: Images for my magazine

For my dominating model I'm going to use this model, I came up with the idea of her having a fear of balloons (which she actually did have a fear of). I was planning on using the second image as this would fit perfectly with the idea but my model said she did not like the image at all. So I decided to change the wordings to "I was afraid of balloons" and I will be using the first image to show that she had fought her fears. I also brought in my dress for my model since she didn't own any, and I brought in a pink one because it seemed girly and it matched the theme colour of my magazine and so did the balloons so they all tie in very well. Her hair was also wavy/curly which is currently in style amongst most teenage girls. 

For my second image my model is holding a mic I added this in to make it seem musical and it's a music magazine so it needed a touch of a musical prop. I had her hold it close to her mouth to make it seem like she is singing and enjoying her life as a Pop artist. Then I will add a quote saying "I hated singing" this will contrast with the image and will make the reader want to read more as an artists won't usually say this. I will be using the first image as she is making eye contact with the audience and it looks like she is actually singing with her mouth opened whereas the second image she is just smiling and has her mic close to her mic and it doesn't seem right. The last image of her posing with her arm doesn't look right either it looks quite odd. 

Finally for the the image I asked my artist to hold her finger against her lips so it seems like she's hiding a secret, this goes with my feature on artists revealing their top secrets. In this image her clothing didn't matter as much as I mainly was focusing on her facial expression as I will only cut out her face for my contents page. I tried to make sure there was enough light on her face to show her expression, she's not smiling in these images so it subvert the idea of a Pop image. I will be using the second image as it seems more mysterious and it fits perfectly with the idea. The first image you can see a slight smirk on her face, it doesn't fit in with the idea so I won't be using that neither will I use the last one because it seems blurry.
