This thrifted dress was such a gorgeous find for the photography studio!
It pairs so well with the bright summer makeup and the florals.

What’s your favorite prop to shoot with in the photography studio?
I absolutely adore doing portraits lying down.
It makes it so much easier to style the hair and get this soft, flowy look that I love in photography.
I dream of one day shooting with an inflatable pool full of water (and maybe some food coloring), but for now, I try to get a dreamy, weightless portrait with just a blanket and some flowers on the studio floor.
If you haven’t shot your model lying down, I highly suggest it! Play and experiment!
What advice would I give to those starting self portrait photography?
What would I do different if I was starting over today?
📷
Honestly, if I was starting over I would do it more from a financial perspective.
I spent so much money on DSLR bodies, different lenses, backdrops, umbrellas, lighting and more to try and be more professional, but all this equipment ran up my credit card bill and slowed down my creation process.
And when it’s harder to create, the less we create.
The more time it takes to create, the less we can create.
📷
I would keep down to the basics:
We truly don’t need to spend so much money to look professional.
We need to spend our time creating, practicing, and upgrading our equipment when necessary instead of when we think we can get a shortcut.

I hope this helps!
Self portrait photography is one of my greatest passions in life!
Let’s get creative and make some art.
Although this stunning horned headdress will remain with me in the studio (it’s my favorite, what can I say?), there are plenty of OOAK fantasy headdresses available in the Shop!
✨🌙✨
This boudoir photoshoot is still one of my favorites, and there are boudoir prints available to build your collection!
In other news, I’ve been thinking about getting started on some resources for aspiring self-portrait photographers…
Who would love to learn about self-portrait photography?

There are already some resources here in the blog, but I’d love to put together a book someday.
