Learning how to take good photographs is going to be an ongoing journey for me.
First I bought a tripod so I can get clear photos (cute huh!? Now the camera has legs!)...
I cut three sides out of a cardboard box and lined the inside of the box with white paper.
Then I cut a piece of board I bought at the art supplies shop to size so it would cover the back and bottom of the box.
I used lots of glue and flexed it into place so there is a curve at the back/bottom of the light box.
I used double sided mounting tape to attach white cloth over the cut away sides....taa daa!
Now to add the light source and camera (any advice on what provides a good light source? I used the lamp I had on hand)....
But does it work?
Bludnut says...hell yeah!!
Not bad for a first attempt if I don't say so!
Thanks to the talented friends who've tutored me since the great introduction I received during Make Craft Your Business. Ideas? Suggestions?
