Today we will discuss a few techniques and props that will help elevate your photography by not even buying camera. Photographer Vanessa Joy and AdoramaTV are bringing 7 small cool toys that will bring new flavors into your photography.
Vanessa explains: “I’ve got literally a bag of tricks here for us it’s all inexpensive and things you might even have around your house. I do like using a mirrorless camera for this because it gives me a better idea of what it looks like as I’m shooting. Let’s just get a basic exposure. I might switch to my 15 millimeter lens.”
“we’re just going to put this in front you can see it creates a really nice reflection depending where you hold it or you can use some of the colors so that is number one and depending on where you put it in your lens you can do some pretty interesting reflections.”
“These are not just regular beads are kind of crystallized so they’re not totally opaque which is gonna add some really fun color”
“You can take your flashlight and shine it right in and create really fun haze. I’m gonna change my lens again back to my one point two because that will create a little bit more of a haze.”
“When you use this technique ideally you have a streak of sunlight to work with something that’s actually that bright we don’t have that so what I’ve got is a pro flash light.”
