Potential Colour Schemes
Im planning on using black and white for my photography so would like to inlcude a similar colour scheme - black and white are bold and strong colours but alone could look boring so i am planning on using a minimal amount of a very pale shade of pink so it specifies to my target market of girls also pink connotes the "pop" music culture. I am only planning on using the pink for headers and only very minimally as i think it has the potential to look very tacky which im not aiming for. I also am considering about using a very dark grey that is almsot black for my headers but i dont want to risk using more than 3 colours and without the splash of pink the black,white/grey is very minimalistic and can look very basic.

Ideas For Location & Photo
These are shots that one of my friends has taken for her photography classes, i am going ot use these photos for inspiration as i like how the model is posing and especially like the black and white colour on some of the photos. I love the location and know where abouts it is so am consiedring going to this place to hold my photoshoot. My favourite location is the one with the tyres. Although im not too kean on the side shot in the last photo in particular i love the colouring and lighting effects and would consider doing this by using photoshop for my magazine.

Decisions
I have just realised that for my front cover it is neccesary that i must only have one person modelling, which does not work with my original idea as i was going to have a couple on my front. I have now changed my idea to fit with the spec, so my new idea is a black and white photo of Leonie Holder (The Photo), she now has dark hair though with extensions, so i've decided i want it loose curls like cheryl coles hair style. i want to take a mid shot or a long shot with Leonie posing in skinny jeans, boot heels but topless with her holding an LP disk to cover herself so nothing is exposed, she has agreed to do this. I also want the background to be inside a derelict building which my stepdad has arranged to sort out for myself. It is similar to this photoshoot above/below, which i think looks up to date yet very rustic and simplistic which is what im aiming for, i also like the pose and style of this photo.
