How to Take Pictures in a New Dorm Room

How to Take Pictures in a New Dorm Room 
{A Step-by-Step Guide}
* indicates an optional step

Step 1: Convince your roommate to stand in the middle of the room.


Step 2: Make her stand there as you adjust camera settings, curtains and blinds until you are able to achieve the lighting you were aiming for.


Step 3: [Using two tacks] Pin up a super fancy backdrop (*cough cough* bed sheet bought at Target specifically for this purpose)


Step 4: Allow your roommate to tuck the bottom of the super fancy backdrop out of the way when not in use (because she did let you put it over her doorway, after all.)


Step 5: Bribe your roommate to stand in the middle of the room [in front of the sheet] for you again.


Step 6: Continue adjusting things to achieve desired "look".


*Step 7: Invite your friend with newly dyed pink hair to come pose for you.





*Step 8: Tell her to pose like she is Gwen Stefani and she knows how awesome she is.





*Step 9: Introduce a fun prop (such as this pretty blue chair that complements her hair color wonderfully)



Step 10: Load them to your computer and have lots of fun editing!!


And that's the end.

  3. Those are great photos! It is cool how you used such simple stuff to take some pretty beautiful pictures. :)
    I was wondering how you made their eyes stand out so much. They both have pretty eyes, and I'd like to be able to make my model's eyes stand out.
