Taking Pictures

I had my friend Amy model for pictures as I wanted to use her on my cover and double page spread. I had to choose a specific look to create the right vibe for the magazine; Amy already has quite an edgy look - she has peircings and big, auburn hair - which is what shaped the theme of the photographs. I dressed her in a black jumper with a big white skull on the front, leggings and bright purple Dr. Martens. She put her hair up in a big messy style and wore smokey eyes and red lipstick, to acheive a grungy, glamrock look.

We were in the middle of decorating my house so I decided to take some pictures on the uncarpeted stairs to build atmosphere and character. I think this was quite effective in representing the type of character Amy might be as a musician. I am likely to use one of the stair pictures for my double-page spread.
