Above is a contact sheet of all of the clear photos I took in the shoot for my magazine along with my favorite four main photos that I am going to choose from for my cover. In the contact sheet there are a variety of different images with a range of angles. It was easier to help my model to pose than I thought as she knew what to do and conveyed my genre as fun and easy-going. I found that I didn’t have to take as many photos because there were many different facial expressions and poses she used so that I could take good quality photos early on in the shoot after I had adjusted the focus and found the right angle. Some of the photos that I have chosen from the four are too bright or not focused enough so I will use Photoshop to make minor changes to make the quality better.

Above is the final and photo shopped image I have chosen to go on my front cover. I have used tools such as the dodge tool for eye and teeth whitening, the burn tool for darkening her clothing and lips, and I have also used tools to balance out her complexion and smooth her skin.
