Hi Everyone! In this final installment we wrap things up with a look at staging & styling photos and creating memorable gifts! After all the work is done to create a beautiful dress or outfit, it's so important to carry that attention to detail over to the photos or gifting presentation. I have several videos to share with you here, one with a focus on photos, one with a focus on packaging & gifting, and one from a few years ago (pre-covid, no masks) where I take you shopping to find mini props and accessories!
Resources mentioned in the videos:
Large Light Box (on Amazon)
Paper Source ( Large flat papers for backdrops or under flatly)
Photoshop Elements (adobe.com)
Lightroom (adobe.com)
Hallmark keepsake Ornaments (on Amazon) Some work, some don't;. You just need to look at the measurements to determine the scale. The Fisher Price set is perfect!
Worlds Smallest (branded games and toys)
Mini Brands fun branded products, food, shampoo, candy, etc. There is also Toy Mini BrandsThe link is to Amazon, but you can find these int eat toy sections at Walmart and Target. My family knows this is my favorite stocking stuffer, haha! The mini McCormick Cinnamon spice jar is my favorite one!
This was so informative! Would love to see more on photography editing how to. Thank you!
Found an elf in the shelf super tiny @ Ltdcommodities.com for my Xmas setting. Now need to get the tree and its ornaments. Can we download the videos of this Tuesday?
Love the photography video!! We need a whole month on that! Even if all we want to do is take a picture to share it in a Facebook group, these tips are really helpful.
I love, love, love this weeks videos. I’ll be out looking for these props and start taking pics of my creations. Fantastic video content. Very appreciated.
I have found that penlights make great 18" doll flashlights that really work! I also like the small holiday gift bags for displays. Sometimes you have to shorten the handles. What have other people used?
So I was wondering where I can find mini brands in Spain?
