Hello! This is my entry for the photocontest hosted by @juliank under the category #portraitphotography

model: Jiezel, my ever supportive sis lol

Do not underestimate the power of plastic cellophanes for they can turn your photo so lit as if it was taken by a pro.

You got it right! The lighting equipment used in this photo are two cellphones plastered with plastic cellophanes!

Interested? Well, here's how it's done.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
• A decent room
• Two (2) cellphones/torch
• Two (2) plastic cellophanes of different color. (colors of the cellophanes are optional)
• A decent camera (I used a smartphone in this one)
• Photo editing app (optional)

All you have to do is to place the lights wherever you think it will be best. In this shot, the lights are placed on the opposite sides with the model in between.

This is the original photo

I used Adobe Lightroom CC for further enhancement

See? You do not need expensive equipment to achieve a dope shot. All you need is to unleash your innovative side and start improvising materials within your reach.

So that's it. I hope you like it!
