Description:
Flat lay is a 21st century still life. Bonnie is a real expert in this. Here are her tips. As a background, a tree of different shades is used, as well as varying degrees of vintage in the texture. In addition to the tree, we see tables of black, gray and white colors. This is the main range for flat lay. Soft scattered light is used. Rarely can you see a flat lay, shot in direct sunlight. Why is that? Because, firstly, the direct sun gives hard shadows that interfere with the creation of the composition, and secondly, it is very difficult to shoot dark subjects in this light because of the white background. the matrix of the camera is not as sensitive as our eyes, and because of the large contrast difference some of the shades and shadows of the camera are simply not transmitted. This effect can be partially corrected during photo processing, especially if you were shooting in RAW format. However, the use of soft scattered light for a white background and shades will greatly simplify your life. What participates in the photos? Flat lay - it's about the pleasant. Therefore, in the frame most often are beautiful cups of coffee, fresh croissants, flower petals, books and magazines, desserts and sweets, phones and laptops, glasses of wine, and hands of people who are always happy. When you are preparing to shoot, then carefully select all that will participate in the shot: try to make the texture of the table interesting and photogenic, the foam on the cappuccino is fresh, and the flowers are freshly cut. Wait for the soft sunlight, stock beautiful surfaces in the traditional colors and textures for this genre, arrange beautiful objects in accordance with the rules of the Golden Section (or come up with something more original).
