The Best Photo and Photoshop Changing

i have chosen that this photo is the most successful from my third photo shoot and therefore i will be using this for my final front cover. i chose this because i think it is much more interesting and a more exciting expression is shown. i like that she is using her hand to pose which i think makes the positioning quite cheesy which suits the magazine. i also like that there isn't any harsh shadows such as on the wall which were very visible in my other photo shoots. also this photo has enough space above her head and besides her, to enable me to write and apply the title and photos.

to edit the photo for the front cover i used Adobe Photoshop, i firstly removed the background by using the eraser tool which allowed me to create a transparent background and also get rid of the fly away hair on the top of her head. also i used the clone stamp tool which allowed any blemishes that i didn't want on the photo to disappear, such as the freckles and marks on her arms. also i used this tool for underneath her eyes to get rid of some of the crease to open her eyes more. i noticed on her arm and on her top that some strands of hair were there so i used the clone stamp tool also to blend the top and hair slightly so that it was less visible.
