Selecting Photos from the Photo Shoot

Photo Shoot 1
In preparation for my media products I organised a photo shoot where I would take pictures of the person who would be featured in the main feature article, Sacha. She was acting as a young, popular singer, who was being interviewed after he career took a downfall after her affair was disclosed.
The main photo shoot took place at a local park, where the images taken would fit in with the casual atmosphere of the interview. These would then be edited in a way that made them suitable to place on the double-page spread, where the interview with Sacha would appear.
The photos I took showed Sacha in a number of casual poses that signified her thoughtful state of mind as she sat at various places in the park. These are the original photos I took in the park:

Of these photos I would select the few that I thought would be most appropriate to edit and use in my media products. After the editing process I would then choose suitable fonts to use for the text that would be placed around the images on the contentz page and double-page spread.
Photo Shoot 2
I also organised another photo shoot with Sacha, where I took images of her that focused on her personal appearance rather than her surroundings. I took various images that showed her in various types of clothing and with different facial expressions, signifying to the decoder her mood at the time, as well as personal style. These are the photos I would choose from when the time came to select images for my magazine:

Ronan Keating
For my other cover story I included an image of the Irish pop singer Ronan Keating that I had taken myself at a previous concert.
