Using Camera Angles and Shots

Hey guys, I'm back to explain to you how I angle my picture of my clients and why. I take a series of pictures of each individual, whose hair I do in order to get the different details of the style that they chose to get. For example if someone were to get triangle shaped parts instead of boxes, I would focus on the emphasis of the parts. Here are some examples of the pictures I took without editing them

Targeted Audience

My perspective audience would specifically be women and or girls with natural hair. More women are interested in beauty magazines and it attracts mostly females. Although some males, even those of the LGBTQ community may take interest in my particular magazine. Therefore I want my magazine to be gender neutral. There is no age limit on your hair being done and getting all dolled up just to feel pretty. I have done children as young as 6 years old hair and women as old as 65 years old hair. Like they always say "Age ain't nothing but a number". This magazine will be aimed towards those who enjoy beauty, hair and words of empowerment. Typically those viewing my magazine will be looking for hair tips and ideas and or words or encouragement.

All about me

Hello I'm back to tell you a little about myself. I'm Kamiyah, and I love the idea of encouraging other women and doing hair. This is the soul purpose of my magazine. Fashion and hair are things that i absolutely enjoy. I enjoy it so much that I lerned to do hair. I've been doing it for a little over 4 years. In my magazine my models are going to be pictures of the people whose hair I've done. As a project I'm creating a magazine on black women empowerment. I got my idea of my magazine from a magazine called "Black Beauty". This idea encouraged me to focus on a specific race because there isn't many popular magazines on black women beside, the one I got my idea from and a magazine called "Essence". I want my magazine to encourage women, when their hair is done or when they have their natural hair out as well.

Research for Magazines

During my research I decided to focus my magazine on cosmetics and black women empowerment. My main focus is to prove that women confidence levels accelerate once their hair is done. The right hairstyle will make a woman feel like she can conquer the world. I have always liked fashion magazines, because they capture my attention. Other magazines such as gossip and ones of that sort don't excite, especially because most are based on other peoples lives using lies. While researching these magazines the ones labeled "Black Beauty" caused me to pick them as a template, because theses beautiful women caught my attention. The cover of the magazines gave me the idea of doing my magazine on black women beauty and empowerment. My main focus for my magazine is writing about the change in women confidence levels while their hair is done, and when it isn't. From personal experience I can tell you that I feel better about my self once I get my hair, rather than when I'm just walking around with it in a puff/ponytail.
