In order to decide which photograph to use for my main image on my magazine's double page spread, I made sure to take multiple pictures that I could choose from. Below are a few examples that I went through, as well as my chosen photograph.
Looking at the four images above, they show the different flash effects and poses I put my model in, all including her laughing. The first and last photos were ones I took without a flash, hence the darker lighting conditions, however I disregarded these when it came to choosing my final photo as the effects of the flash I have found created a more professional looking magazine image.
This last image shows my chosen photograph to use for my double page spread. My reason for this particular photo choice is because the model is looking up, allowing the readers to see her cheerful expression, whilst also engaging with the audience. Despite there being no eye contact, I have seen this being used in a professional magazine to much success in an edition of Q, featured the Sing Out Sisters, therefore I was confident that it was not always necessary. Below it is the final image I used after editing, which you can see is a lot cleaner, brighter and professional looking with the white background.
