Original photography

I decided not to use this photo because I found his facial expression too serious and didn't fit the style that I wanted my magazine to have.

 I liked this shot because it focuses specifically on the instrument itself, however because my article was all about the artist, it didn't feel right to not include his face within the double page spread.

This was the photo I eventually decided to use for my double page spread, it needed some editing, especially within the background but it shows the artist looking much more relaxed with his instrument which is the look I was hoping for.

 I used this image on my contents page because it is not too eye-catching that it takes the main focus away from the text but relates well to the content of the text and the magazine itself.

This is the image I used on my front cover of my magazine, I chose this image because of the angle of the trumpet, it makes the reader feel as though they're being drawn into the magazine as it almost looks as though it sticks out of the image.

This wasn't a good photo to use because the model's eyes are shut, this wouldn't look very inviting on the front cover of the magazine and would display poor photography.

I used this image on my contents page because of the colours complimenting one another, the gold microphone stands out from the blue blazer and highlights the fact that it could be more important. The model is very central in this image and is of a good quality.

I didn't use this image because the model isn't central in the image and doesn't look relaxed or happy.
