Photo session Blog header- Sesión fotos para el blog
I thought it would be very fun to share with you today the “photo session” of my blog´s header.
Just a few pics of how it was made..
1.- the first thing I needed was a background so I tried using this white cardboard. I´ve always love hanging ropes, so this tiny clothespins were sure to make it!
He pensado que hoy os mostraría la “sesión de fotos” de la cabecera de mi blog.
Algunas imágenes que cómo se hizo..
1.- Lo primero es encontrar un fondo apropiado para que no se vea la pared. Y la cuerdita de tender la ropa, con las pinzas..siempre me ha encantado.
2.- I gathered a few things I had at home that I thought would look nice, like the wooden spools with the bakers twine, a little red bench..and the first “model” showed up. Her name is Lily. She was very excited to participate, but…
2.- Reunir las cositas que quería poner en el escenario como carretes de madera para los hilos de colores, un banquito rojo de barro, el dedal. Y aquí vemos a la primera “modelo” que apareció. Su nombre es Lily. Estaba muy emocionada de participar,pero..
There where other models too she had to compete with, like Claudia..a very happy girl .
tenía que competir con otras modelos, como Claudia, una niña muy alegre.
And our third option, little “apple pie”..you all know her very well!
y nuestra tercera opción, “pequeña pastel de manzana”..todos la conocéis bien!
And so she finally was the chosen one! her green tights are just too cute! not to mention the apple she has on her dress. She was very quiet, but sweet too! So after displaying all the wooden spools, choosing a better background, changing the clothespin line for a improvised garland with fabric triangles .oh! and the metallic watering can.etc, this is what the final photo looked like:
Finalmente ella fue la elegida! Sus medias verdes eran demasiado monas! sin mencionar la manzana de su vestido. Era muy callada,pero dulce. Así es que después de montarlo todo con los carretes, un mejor fondo, y cambiar la cuerda de tender la ropa por una mini banderilla con triangulitos de tela que improvisé…ah! y añadir la regadera metálica del Belén… etc, así fue como quedó la foto que utilicé:
And to wrap it up a little photo editing..That it! this is the story behind my header!!! I hope you liked it!! it was super fun to write this!!
y para terminar del todo un poco de edición fotográfica….Bueno esta es la historia detrás de la cabecera de mi blog! Ha sido muy divertido escribirla! espero que os gustara!!
I have always wondered about this ..You’re so very creative ! Thanks so much letting us know : )
you are welcome Aleena! it was super fun to share! I wish I had more pics!!!
It’s really lovely to see, how you made the blog header. I have one question left though: what exactly did you do in the process of the photo editing between the next to last and the last one? how did you achive the softer and brighter look? I often see this kind of photo on the internet and always wondered how people create this effect.
Thank you Ishtar for sharing this and a lot of other great things, I always have a lot to learn from you. You a very creative and generous person
wish you luck in all that you do!
Siempre me quedo alucinada con estas cosas, cuanta imaginación y q buen trabajo!!
Wow Ishtar la verdad que cuidaste cada detalle, yo ayer me hice una a lo loca, mmmm tengo que aprender de ti tantas cosas.
Y dime el fondo es genial, es papel?
La primera vez que entré a tu blog, lo que más me llamó la atención fue tu header. Qué entretenido cómo lo hiciste, yo imaginaba que había sido un proceso mucho más digital, veo que no.
Que estén bien.
Thanks for sharing your process with us! The little model you finally choose is very cute, she’s just right for the job =)
Que bello todo lo que haces
lovely to see peoples thought processes, i wish i was a creative !
sorry meant ‘as’ creative
I edited the photo with picnik.com Including color, light, and the flower stickers. For my name and the “stitching effect ” I used adobe fireworks.çThank you all for your lovely comments! I´m glad you liked the process! I´ll try to find more pictures and show them to you!
xo,
ishtar
This was so helpful. I am in the middle of developing my brand/blog and this gave me many more creative ideas for banners, buttons etc. Thank you, I never knew how this was done!
