Framing shots including and excluding elements as appropriate

Front cover images I chose to photograph my brother as he suited the style of my genre, with his style of clothing and being able to play the guitar. I photographed him against a plain background so to keep focus on him and make it easy to put writing over the top. Edits I decided to lighten the images as they were taken late at night so looked dark. I altered the tone of the image making the background the right colour, whilst editing the subject to keep the face warm in colour. Also in a few of the shots the t.v was in the way, so I used the clone stamp and blur tool to edit it out. Gig photos These photos were taken from the gigs I went to which I will try to include in my magazine. The quality in some photos isn't the best as they are quite blurry up close due to the image quality on my phone, but I will make sure that they are a small size so it's hard to notice and won't enhance the poor quality.
