It has been a fun but very technical morning for me so far. The Amazon fairy delivered my Light box equipment yesterday, so I have been playing around with it, and it got me thinking. When I first started Scrap booking in 2006(my Jr year of High School), it was very low tech (OK really no-tech) It was scissors (you know the ones with all the frilly edges..) construction paper, and overly themed embellishments. I was not even using basic design concepts, let alone any gadgets or machines to enhance it. Jump forward to present day, We have our beloved die-cutting machines and embossing tools, and thankfully for me, My taste in design has improved dramatically. I was finding that I would fall in love with these projects I have created, and when I photographed them to share with all of you, I just couldn't capture them in a way that I was happy with. I started looking on Pinterest for tips and tricks to help my very basic photography skills. I decided that the best investment for me would be a light box, and I was right! I purchased the "Square Perfect 3085 SP200 Studio in a box" shown below.
I just happened to be browsing while Amazon was having a "Lightning Sale" on all photography equipment. What Luck! I was very pleasantly surprised when I received it. It was very easy to assemble, I can set it up or take it down within minutes. More than its easy assembly, I was so impressed with what a difference it makes in my photographs!
I can finally capture small details on a card, without having a glare or reflection.
I am one very happy "medium-technology" camper. My next adventure will be filming & editing process videos...Something tells me that this one may not be as simple...
