It's not professional. At all. Lighting is awful, pose is too stereotypical teen, it's obvious that it wasn't taken on a high-quality thousand-dollar top-notch camera, it's raw and unedited and most professional photos are these days, lack of background, and all of the elements and principles of art have obviously not been applied. It's not professional and all magazine cover photos are.
There's no way a young girls photo would be posted on the front cover of a Hip-Hop magazine, the position the girls in is not right and too lopsided, and the website at the bottom of the picture gives it away from whoever made it.
