p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · GrandDaughter Alexis First CD Cover


We just finished up my granddaughter Alexis's first CD. While on the way to recording 5 songs in the studio (which took SO MUCH longer then we thought), we changed course right near the end and decided to release one single first and plan on finishing up the full EP in September. Just got our first production run back from Disc Makers, everything is already out on Itunes and CD Baby. Alexis is really way overwhelmed by all the attention she's been getting, I just tell her, you worked hard, enjoy the moment.

Her's the cover shot that we went with, nothing real fancy, but I do like the shot (if I must say so myself)
Thanks, Bob

Leaving the technical eval to better minds, I like the image: simple, attractive and interesting. Conveys a sense of 'New' without looking contrived.

Good Luck!

Not crazy about the font and maybe including more the the guitar in the shot....seems more like a senior portrait than a cd cover to me....technically though very strong image

How cool is that!!!! I looked her up in iTunes, listened to her song, very nice!

Lovely pic of her for the cover. I imagine you're almost as excited as she is.

Is this all natural light or were lights used?

Thanks everyone for the overnight look and comments.

Michaelparris, the picture was mine, Alexis liked the fonts, it's her cover, so it can't be wrong, when we went out to do the shoot for possible cover shots, I took my 70-200, and for every shot, I took 4 or 5 shots at various focal distances, we picked this one as she wanted the picture to be about her and not the guitar

Ron, thanks for looking her up, yes, I'm as excited as you can image and again, thanks for your help and advice along the way, it's very much appreciated

mdbrown, this was all natural light, we have a really nice park nearby, went over one evening, had really nice conditions

Thanks again everyone
Bob
