Equipment and Props

In this post, I will be discussing any equipment and props I will need to make vision come to life, as well as what I have access to and what I need to find. Lastly, I will be discussing issues that I may run into during this process and the backup plans I have.

Equipment and Props: The equipment that I will be utilizing is just my I-Phone SE in which the camera on the phone is of very good quality. For lighting, the location I will be shooting at is outdoors, so I hope to capture the natural bright rays of the sun. The props I will be using include sunglasses and a fake bouquet of flowers. These props will be used during the actual production, but it is during post-production where I can make any changes that need to be made. This can be if I wanted to add a few flowers in a certain area, or if I wanted to add a hat or pieces of jewlery for the model to hold in a couple shots, for example. If I needed to add these props in I could always use photoshop to help me fix anything that might need to be added or even taken away. This will ultimately help the photo come as close as possible to how I have it pictured in my mind.

What I have access to/what I need to find: I currently have a pair of sunglasses and jewelry to use, however I do not have a fake bouquet of flowers. In order to get this prop, I will need to order it from Amazon.com.

Issues/backup plan: Some issues I may run into is that whatever I need ordered from a website, like the flowers for instance, might not get delivered in time or at all. In order to work around this, I can possibly get real flowers from a store, however it would have to be the day of the photoshoot or a couple days after so the plants stay fresh. Worst case scenario, I can eliminate any of the props that I may not have and switch them out for other props like hats, as mentioned before, or just focus on making the photo's more simplistic.

Photos:

These are the sunglasses I have, meaning I do not have to purchase a pair.

Similar to the sunglasses, this photo is used to show some of the jewelry that I have at home, meaning I won't need to purchase/find jewelry. (The jewelry can be held as a prop by the model)

This is the I-Phone SE I will be using to take my photos.

In this image, I have began researching the colors of flowers I would like to buy for my props.
