IDEA 1. Magazine ideas (Reflection)

For one of my magazine ideas, I am going to demonstrate 'reflection' within 'fashion'. 

This cover image is taken from ''Elle'' magazine.
 I selected this front cover so that I could reveal the 'reflection' that I am going to suggest when it comes down to producing it. 
I chose this particular image as its focus is on the models face and it clearly demonstrates detailed reflection within the eyes well.
To show reflection in this cover, I am going to do the reflection, within the models eyes. 












I selected this next fashion cover from Grazia showing its display of reflection through shadow movement and depth.
The 'reflection' in water not only adds another layer of interest to the photograph but it also introduces an element of depth with its reflection mirrored in tranquil water.
There are many forms of reflections and many different ways to photograph them. This kind of image relies on shooting in flat, calm conditions.
This shot shows the light is falling on the main subject (model) but the water itself is in shadow, is very effective and leads to a dramatic image.
To show reflection in this cover, I am going to do the reflection, reflected from the water above the models head.


This cover is taken from Marie Claire magazine.
This images demonstrate reflection of light through “High key" and "low key" lighting.
The main focus in this shot is the models face where key lighting is used.Shadows cast by the key light makes the model more visible against the background encompassing the detail you want to stand out.
To show reflection in this cover, I am going to do the reflection, reflected within the ‘high key’ lighting on his face.













The photographer that I have chosen is 'Mario Testino'. Testino is a 'Peruvian' photographer. He is mostly known for his 'worldwide portraits' of some of the most famous faces. For example, he shot portraits of the Royal Family to Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Madonna. He's also shot campaigns for the likes of Burberry, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana and Versace. 
Testino was born in 1954 in Lima, Peru. He moved to London in 1976 to begin his career in photography. Living in a flat in an abandoned hospital near Trafalgar Square, he made a living by selling portfoliosHis work first appeared in 'Vogue' in 1983 and he has since shot countless covers for the magazine worldwide. From then, his work processed more. From shooting Princess Diana for her famous 'Vanity Fair' cover and so on and so on. 
Here are some examples of his work
