Kate Brunkhorst, Project Posting #4 Magazine Spread Images

  1. The use of the bride with cowboy boots is a very strong visual for the cover. This picture draws attention to the cover. The use of the blue for the numbers was a very strong choice, because it creates consistency on the cover page. The spread of your magazine used a family tree concept. This familiar idea of family being used to describe a wedding is clever and relatable to the reader. The use of colors are well suited for your magazine, because the colors are very earthy. The tree leads you directly to the title. Not only does your design work well for the magazine, I think the overall topic of your magazine would be really popular for brides today.

  2. The use of several shades of blue and green and the recurring use of trees and leaves give the entire spread a very organic feel, which is very appropriate for this genre of magazine. The use of the "family tree" with the pictures dangling from the branches is very visually appealing and a very unique idea that is not often seen. The hand-drawn look of the tree also adds to the scrapbook concept. The tabs on the side make the reader feel as if they're looking through a friend's personal scrapbook. The image used on the cover is also very appealing. When I first looked at it, it made me laugh which is very powerful in drawing readers to a magazine.I think the spread as a whole is a great success!
