              [BTS Video] The Best Way To Create Fake Snow For Your Photos

              how to photograph christmas lights1 300x166 [BTS Video] The Best Way To Create Fake Snow For Your Photos Jay P Morgan is at it again with a new Christmas themed photoshoot. Almost everytime I watch one of Jay’s photoshoots I learn a clever way to artificially create something that I wouldn’t have thought of before. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to create realistic fake snow on a set, Jay teaches you a simple and easy way to bring the elements into the studio. Granted bringing in artificial snow into the studio will create a huge mess, but it looks like a lot of fun and can allow you to create a winter atmosphere even in the summer. There are a lot of places to buy artificial snow like Amazon or Superior Studios Specialties so stock up now if you ever want to try this yourself. As always, if you enjoy Jay P Morgan’s videos, check out other tips of his in the Fstoppers Archives.

                I don’t think we’ve ever posted this before.  It’s a few weeks old now so you probably saw it on another blog maybe?
