Chosen Model For Cover



The model I have chosen for the front cover of my magazine is 17 year old Hannah Scoular. I have chosen to photograph Hannah for a number of reasons, firstly, i believe that she will really appeal to the target audience as she will appear to be somebody that teenage girls can relate to, this is very important as it will attract the attention of th target audience. Another reason i chose to photograph Hannah is because she is extremely confident which really communicates well through the photos i have taken, it is incredibily important when taking photos of somebody for a purpose such as this that they are very confident in themselves and comforable with having there photo taken because if they do not feel comfortable this will really show and may even make the reader feel uncomfortable and makes the magazine seem less proffesional. I also chose Hannah because she often wears very indie outfits and therefore portrays the genre perfectly, it is very important to me that all aspects of the magazine will be representing the indie theme so Hannah was the perfect choice. Hannah is also very photogenic and i am very pleased with the photos that i have taken as i am not restricted to a select few. On the day of the photoshoot i managaed to take 303 photos of Hannah as aprt from a handful that were out of focus the vast majority could be used which is great because i had a really large selection of photos to work wth and experiment with different styles of editing with. Hannah also has a quirky haircut and unconventional hair colour which will furthur help to attract the attention of the target audience.
