Making the Newspaper

Selecting my photos

Through Lightroom I chose my best three images and edited out the imperfections such as smudges on the camera lens. Once the images were edited, I exported them into a sperate folder in order to export into InDesign.

My Final Images

Experimenting with layout

As my photographs were all portraits, I only used single page spreads to keep the dimensions of the image correct. For two of the images I kept a white border around the edge, and to create some juxtaposition I stretched one image out to the bleed of the page. I like this layout as it provides a sense of an old family photo album, which adds to the vintage aesthetic to the photographs.
