Photoshoot Ideas

Photoshoot Plan

Below, I have created a more in depth plan of what I will do for my photoshoot. It includes what props I will use, the location of my photoshoot, why I have chosen the model I did, and it also includes a mood board of makeup, clothes and hair ideas.

Front Cover:

On my front cover, the picture will take up most, if not all of the page, the image of the artist will be of her outside, looking relaxed and  comfortable. I will put writing over some of the picture, so I need to make sure that there is space to do this.

I will also photograph a set of other people to be my extra band that is on the front page, as well as a small picture of myself for the 'Editor's Note!'


Contents Page:

On the contents page, I will have very few photos, I will have a photo of Lola Roberts, which will be a different one than is on the front cover, as well as a photo of a guitar for the competition. The photo of Lola Roberts will be of her inside, looking very natural, as though she doesn't even know she is being photographed.


Feature Article:

As my feature article will take up two pages, I will have a few different pictures of Lola Roberts that will either be in the centre of the double page spread, or they will take up the whole space, and I will put text over them. There will be a variety of different pictures of her on the feature article, which I will photoshop to bring out maximum colour, and make it look very eye catching.

Props:
- Guitar
- Flower Headband

My props are minimal, so that none of the pictures are too overcrowded, and it shows the artist's style, and keeps it simple.


Location:

The location of my photoshoot will be in a village called brightwalton, it has lots of fields and cottages, which is the type of rural setting I want my model to be pitured in. A small area from brightwalton is pictured to the right, which shows some of the cottages, where I may take my model, as it represents her style well, being very rural, yet pretty.



Why did I choose Charlotte to be 'Lola Roberts?':
I chose Charlotte to be my model, because she is the right sort of age, and has the right look to be a singer. She looks young and has a type of look that can be easily styled to look how I want her too. She has blonde hair, which is what I imagined Lola Roberts to have, and overall she fits the part very well.

Makeup and Hair ideas:
This mood board is half makeup, and half hair ideas for what Charlotte will look like when being photographed, I want her makeup to look very  natural, but still elegant, and her hair to be curly, yet slightly messy to give it a rough look.

Clothing Ideas:
This mood board shows clothing and shoe ideas. I want her clothing to be feminine and girly, however with a slight edge with the converse and a leather jacket. This will bring across well the personality of my artist by combining the two styles.
