Before&After: Shape a Feathered Edge
Artistically erase part of an image, shaping it to fit the space
Here’s your problem: You have photo and type competing for the same space, and something has to give. One alternative: erase some of the photo, and turn it into a design element. A feathered edge will soften its transition to the page. This 15-page article from issue 39 of Before&After Magazine shows you how to feather a photo creatively to maintain its vibrance.

Keep in mind that you want type and image to work together, so what you’re looking for is how they interact.
