Synopsis

In our social media-obsessed world, photos have become social currency, whether pictures of our friends posted to Facebook, or flattering self-portraits for Match.com. Sites like these form a constant outlet for personal images. The result is a growing market of young photo-takers interested in documenting their lives with better, more compelling images. Happily, popular style blogger Elsie Larson and her business partner and sister, Emma Chapman, come to the rescue with A Beautiful Mess Photo Idea Book, providing 100 easy tips and ideas for turning real life into creative, eye-catching photos using any camera (including cameraphones). They share their infectious love of lifestyle photography, with tips on everything from lighting to backdrops, posing, styling, special effects, wardrobe, and much more. A final chapter offers 29 ideas for turning photos into DIY treasures, from gift wrap to jewelry, clothing, lampshades, and more. Packed with 200 photos, A Beautiful Mess Photo Idea Book is an inspiring manifesto to grab your camera (or phone) and start documenting and sharing your life in creative, beautiful ways.
