Below are the photos of skincare products I took for the
skincare section of my table of contents. Looking at content pages from other
black hair and beauty/skin magazines I noticed that images of skincare products
was a common feature on all pages, therefore I felt taking these pictures was a
necessity for an authentic beauty/skin magazine. I chose the basic skin creams and oils I could find around my room
to match the natural skincare information my cover page and content table
promised coverage on. As you can tell I played around with
the lighting, angle, prop set up and background for my photos, but in the end,
I decided to use the third picture as the lighting from the sun had increased
the clarity and readability of the label and details of the creams and
oils. Since I would eventually erase the background of the photo in Canva
the mis-en-scene was irrelevant, as so was the props, as I could
manually add them in Canva. In the end it all came down to lighting, which
I got the best of during midday, when the sun was partially out.
