Construction: Photography for content page and double spread

 I didn't take any specific picture for the content page and double spread. I took a lot of pictures so I decided to choose any picture from them that went with the theme of my content page and double spread. I also used internet to help me find a picture suitable for both the pages. 

Construction: Photography for cover page

 Since, I had taken many, as in many pictures, so I had some really hard choices to make and criticize and appreciate my own shooting (which is not as easy as it sounds)….


This is one of the picture which I really liked for the cover as it had the perfect angel and lighting but i felt like something was still missing


Well this one has one too many issues, so this isn’t even up for consideration. The angel was very off and the position of the nails was not right the lighting was very dull even thought i could have fixed that with editing but still this pictures didnt appeal me the slightest bit.


 
Here I finally found an image to go for my cover page, it has great lighting the sun was hitting in all the perfect angels, the camera angel was low shot which made the picture look different from all the other pictures, hand position was good and all the nail details were prominent. So with everything coming out as planned I didn’t need to look any further, I choose this one!

I wouldn't say it was easy to tackle down but it sure wasn't unachievable. During the shoot, I was very nervous, hoping nothing would go wrong and everything would come out as planned and I was not to be disappointed. I tried many different angles and shots during the shoot, changed places repeatedly, took my own sweet time to take the pictures and finally got the results I wanted.



Construction: Title for cover story

 Current trends in the nail industry 

This is the title I have chosen for my cover story. In this I targeted the two main events that happened in 2021 the Emmy Awards and Meet Gala, that set the new fashion trend for nails as people look up to these events for new styles and fashion.
