1st Draft** of Magazine front cover



Photoshop Manipulation



<---Here i have changed the levels of the lighting to make it a lot more  clear so that i can use it and see her more in depth and gives her a <better complexion.--->






<---I started the editing and cropping out the background here
to get her just alone.









I had to zoom and do close up cropping of a different image as the last one had to many shadows and wasn't of a good light so i decision to change the image.--->




<---I have re-shaped the outline of the dress to get rid of creases and improve the look in order to look more naturally correct.






In this I have Cropped more of her
                                                      legs to make it look more even and
                                                      smooth and so that the dress looks
                                                      more even along the bottom. --->

Photo Shoot - Contents page and DPS

















 
These are the shots taken from when we was getting my 'artist' charlotte ready for the front cover shoot - doing her hair and makeup. As the it looked good I decided to take some shots of her getting ready in case I decided to use them for my DPS or contents page, fitting in with the theme of the article on her which is her new transformation.
