Advertising IndustryAdvertising is used in this industry so that companies can show off their product allowing a boost of their sales, for example, if Nike is showing off a shoe, they would show the slickness and the abilities which will attract their target audience. Advertisements will also be used in store displays which draws customers into store. Travel agencies also use this, they use image of destinations all over the world and they are placed either in leaflets/books/brochures/In-store displays which are given away free, this is done as a way to try and persuade the customer into booking a holiday.

Fashion IndustryPhotography is used in the fashion industry to allow a fashion brand to show off their new season range and what kind of materials they have used, Stone Island is notorious to show off their choice of material of the clothing more than the style of clothing, but style is also as important. It also helps to define the character of each brand just by their photography and who their target audience is mainly by the choice of their models. Different applications are used when taking photos for fashion, in the images I have picked, they have used the rule of third and a bright light to contrast between light and dark and everything is backlit.Stone island photography by : Marcus Gaab
