01 | RECREATING A FAMOUS FAIRY HOAX IMAGE WITH RILEY ARTHUR
Fairies that were caught on camera in 1917 are a part of history often referred to as “The Cottingley Fairies.”
The final image (above) was captured by professional photographer (and Platypod Pro), Riley Arthur, who shares her insights on the fairies that were caught on camera (by Frances Griffiths and Elsie Wright) and she reveals that fairies are still playing with children today (if only you know where to look).
02 | DIALED IN LIGHTING FOR PERFECTLY EXPOSED PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY WITH KERSTEN LUTS
Do you want to create game changing, jaw dropping product photography? Next time you’re at your local café and feel inspired, pick up a unique beverage and give the below tips and tricks from our very own Kersten Luts a try. Below he was captivated by a blue lemonade bottle and wanted to portray it as the absolute thirst quenching treat it was.
“When it comes to photographing drinks (and more specifically bottles), I have some secrets up my sleeve to ensure each feature and shape, along with the labels, stand out and pop/glow from within to create ‘Wow-worthy’ images for your client.”
03 | SOUTHWEST SINGER GROUP SHOT WITH PAOLO CASCIO
"I was recently contracted to photograph the largest group shot I have ever done for the Southwest Singers in Sun City, AZ."
"Thanks to a 13’ platform ladder I was able to capture this image of the 138 member choir with my Canon R5C and R15-35mm mounted to my Platyball Elite and Platypod eXtreme. It was the absolute perfect tool for the job and I can’t imagine how I would have done this shot without it as it was a simple solution to a very complicated setup."
