My contact sheet contains all the photos I’ve taken with my phone during the photoshoot.

Out of all 50 or so it’s a hard job to choose just 5 or 6.

I’ll definitely go with the ones that show snowboarders in action such as this:

The low angle shot of this photo makes the obstacle seem bigger and longer. It also gives depth to the photo, making it ideal for a cover.

Other photos that I really want to put in my magazine are the ones that show more snowboarders, and the ones that show people working at ramps or rearranging the snow.

Final selection of photos:

This photo has a central figure, and focuses around him. As I didn't write about one particular guy in my article, I will use this photo for the table of Content spread.

Cover Photo

This photo is centered around the kicker that is being built. As I have a part of the text focusing on building ramps, it will fit in nicely in the double spread.

The high angle in this photo allows me to fit more people in it, it's a suitable photo for ending the article.

This panoramic photo of a group of people is perfect for starting the double spread, the title can be inserted easily in this picture.

I chose this last photo because it shows a snowboarder uphill, it also brings more meaning to the double spread with the snowboard that is held in the hand.
