Props to pose with

One of the best things to add to your studio are props a model can pose with, now don’t think about posing stools… there will a market for it but it’s not my thing, I love the more “natural” things.

 

These metal bars we got from a friend who owns a toy store and I love using them for a few simple reasons.
First of all you can create nice leading lines with them, but they are also awesome to pose the model on, let her play with her poses and the lines and you have almost limitless opportunities. You can of course always stand them up and use them like that, but most of the times I love them on the floor.

 

Dress : Sinister
Model : Anna Matthea

With the next image I experimented a bit with the new Topaz plugin in Glow.
It’s a more creative plugin and normally I will not use it on full “blast” however when adding it to an image and blending it I really love the outcome to be honest.

 

They are also running a promotion at the moment for Glow, as an introduction you can use the coupon code ‘INTROGLOW’ for the introductory price of $49.99 (regularly $69.99).
