Planning: Initial Ideas for Photographs

My Photography of Initial Backgrounds

I had taken all of these images in my local woodland area as I thought these would create great backdrops for my music magazine.

This would make a good backdrop as this image is not busy therefore would not distract the readers attention away from the image. Although this image is quite dark therefore making the model not stand out.

I think that this photograph is ideal for the background as it is very natural which links to the genre. I also think this setting would create a lot of natural light as well as dark some darker light. I am considering using this in my music magazine as I really like how the trees are set apart and leave a path way, I would place my model in the middle of the trees to create a focus point.

This photograph would be appropriate for my magazine as this could represent one side of the artist having a dark side (the dark trees) and having a nice side (the lighter trees on the right).













I wouldn't use this image for my magazine as personally I don't think it is very appealing to the target audience. However I like how there are trees in the horizon and shrubbery in the foreground, therefore creating depth in the image.

I may use this in my music magazine as the water represents purity, this is what indie singers are as they are natural and honest. I will sit my model on the log in a relaxed pose to represent what they are like as an artist.












I wouldn't use this for my music magazine as this wouldn't make a good background. This is because the trees would be in line with the model therefore creating sections in my magazine that I don't want.















This photograph would be appropriate for my music magazine because I could place the model on the tree stump in the background and take a wide shot. However this wouldn't be a good idea as the model would not be the focus point of the photograph.
