Research into Similar Products / Organisation: CD Front Cover

I have looked at different pictures of Lana Del Rey which could potentially be used on the front of a CD cover. I looked closely at the way Del Rey is positioned and her facial expressions in different shots.
In many of the shots, Del Rey just has an expressionless face which could imply that there is an underlying meaning or that something is hidden. In three of the images below Del Rey has her hand placed somewhere on her face or in her hair which I think is really natural as it shows that maybe the wind had blown her hair out of proportion and she wanted to fix it. This makes the shot seem natural as it is a normal thing to do and doesn't look posed at all and fits with my idea of nature in my music video, digipak and advertisement.
My favourite shot is the second one as I think this shows the outside world of nature the most but also features the artist too except she is blurred which forces someone to look more at the nature of the trees in the background than the artist which I really like. The fact that the artist is blurred could also suggest that the contents of the album is important and has a deep meaning and that it should be focused on more than the artist. I also love the shadows in the image and it makes the image look dark even though it is bright outside which contrasts nicely.
