Trick #1: The Beer Cosy
Protect your lenses simply by using a beer cosy to store them in! It’s safe and protective and can be used for storing them or for just leaving them on the counter (in case you’re afraid someone might knock it over.)
Trick #2: The Black Tile
Use a black tile to be a placement for product photography. Simply place it underneath to create a cool illuminated effect. Slowly move a tablet in the background and set your ISO to 100 and exposure to f14 for a cool painted light effect.
Trick #3: Your Grandma’s Glass Ball
Shoot through the ball and flip it for a nice fish-eye effect. Blur the back and sharpen the glass ball! It will loose like there’s a separate picture.
Trick #4: Aerosol spray and lighter
Using Aerosol spray and lighter, have someone (or yourself, if you are careful enough!) place it in front of the camera for a sizzling hot flame effect in your photos without Photoshop.
Trick #5: Tights & Rubber Band
Cutting up the foot section of a normal pair of nude tights, place it over your lenses and use a rubber band to hold it in place. You will have created a blurry/sepia feel in your photos without filters!
Tip #6: Mirror
Using a mirror in the sun, aim the mirror at the subject for a nice lighting effect without any special lighting equipment.
Tip #7: Cheap Tube Light
Buy a cheap tube light and have the subject hold the tube light, in the dark. It comes out as a beam of glowing neon light, be sure to have fun and get creative with it as well!
