Choosing a magazine that would complement my ideas...

Immediately after deciding to create a fun, vibrant, playful and youthful cover, I was drawn to magazines like POP and LOVE magazine, as I think their representation of fashion is a lot more daring, vibrant and youthful.

Whilst researching the two magazines, I found that LOVE magazine not only inspired me the most due to it's vibrant and different themes but it also fit the brief of my themed shoot the most due to the magazines use of cartoon effects and girly and fun themes with an edge. Some examples that inspired me are shown below.


The cover that inspired and excited me the most features Cara Delevigne on the Fall 2014 issue. The whole look, including imagery in the foreground and background alongside the futuristic makeup and splashes of pink and pastel tones related to my theme so well and would accent the hair, makeup and theme I wanted to encapsulate. I looked into the makeup and photography used on the other photographs featured inside the magazine and came up with the idea to lay my model down in a bed of confetti. This would fit the wedding theme and embody the overall style depicted in the images featured in the Fall 2014 issue of LOVE magazine. 


I made the confetti by punching heart shaped holes into various pastel coloured sheets of crepe paper. This home made confetti would then be used to decorate the back ground, reminiscent of the images above.
