Feature story research

 Feature Story Research

As the feature story  being one of the important articles in my magazine, I have to make sure it's done correctly and for that I have to conduct research. The Following information has come from websites from the internet explaining and giving examples as to what a Feature Story covers and how it should be carried out within the magazine.

According to Thoughtco.com a feature story includes News, Profile spots, and trend stories.

As to how to write a feature story, Edusson.com shows 6 easy steps to doing so, including

  1. Choose an interesting, newsworthy subject.
  2. Schedule a convenient, in-person interview.
  3. Choose your quotes.
  4. Write your draft.
  5. Ask for approval/clarification before publishing.
  6. Move forward.

Couple Photoshoot

 Couple Photoshoot

I took Myla and Daniel to the Miami Botanical Gardens in Miami Beach. The entrance is only $5. I started off by looking around the garden and trying to get ideas on how to pose and where would they look best. The garden is small yet had so much potential for this photoshoot, since they have various small gardens making up 1 big garden.

Models: Daniel Rodriguez

               Myla Perez

Photographer: Katherine Alvarado

All of the following images are originally taken by me.
