Pictures for the front cover

On the 9th of October 2009, I took a total of 532 photos for the front cover and the internal for the pages; these were taken in a number of locations. Throughout this time the models wore a range of different clothing all of which were different colours to create variation. Once we found the perfect pose I took a took a variety of shots of her/him in that position, in different items of clothing that had a wide range of colour to make sure we got the perfect look.
The locations for this shoot were both inside, with a plain backdrop, following the normal conventions of music magazines. Also I took photos in an outdoor environment to create a natural earthy feel, challenging and deviating from the normal conventions of most music magazines.

Examples of photos taken, but not used for a variety of reasons are shown on the following pages with explanations of why they were not suitable to be used.
