I want to share these 3 new portrait ideas that were created for our Digital Creation’s Club. I wanted to give you some ideas that you could use in your photography.
It doesn’t matter if you use our Digital Backgrounds or not…you can create similar portraits like the ones I’m about to share with you.
All it takes is sometimes is a few creative ideas and inspiration to get your creative juices flowing
Portrait #1 was an idea for people that “Love” Motorcycles and that Freedom Type Feel. Remember…I’m sure you’ll have a client that’s into motorcycles and would love an image like the one we created here.
You could always offer to shoot their motorcycle if they have one and use it as your prop.
We named this one “Born To Ride”
The 2nd one we created for The DC Club we named “Flower Pot Surprise”
This can be created using a large Flower Pot that has some type of unique look to it. Usually you can find these at Home Improvement stores or even Garage Sales. Then…choose a backdrop or background that will compliment the Flower Pot with blending…non distracting colors.
The 3rd portrait we created we named “Stylish Stacked Bowls”.
This is all about simplicity with some bold colors. All you need is some large wooden bowls and a white backdrop to create this shot. These don’t have to be bold colors, but with a white background…it looks really good.
The bowls can be found at stores like Target, Walmart or any other Home Department store. These can be expensive…but well worth the investment.
Side Note: I added the light blue background in Photoshop using the vignette technique and erasing the bottom portion.
So..there you have it!
3 New Portrait Ideas that you can use in your photography. I hope you use these or something similar and offer to your clients.
Remember…as photographers in this competitive market we need to be unique. Creating portraits that people will talk about and can only receive from you.

Scott, Love these! As usual you do wonderful work and we appreciate it so much. I will be purchasing shortly! Thanks for always thinking of us.
Scott, you outdid yourself! These creations are the bomb! I am a new Grandmother and waiting for the second grandbaby (another boy)any second! Looking always for boy-ideas now! I know the \"Daddies\" will freak out when the see their boys on the \"born to ride\" creation! Awesome!!! Thank you sooooo much!
Thanks Scott for always thinking of new things for us! Love these.
I’m looking forward to seeing these put to use.
That should be Awesome Elke…can’t wait
awesome ideas Scott
Another great set Scott. How do you keep coming up with these ideas? Amazing, simply amazing…
I have use similar set ups in my child photography. I use pots and pans. It was cute. I do want to say that you sent an idea along time ago that I have been able to successfully put to use! So…yes please keep them coming.
Really great set!
Thanks for the ideas.
Wow! Each one a masterpiece!! The blue vignette is a great idea- it makes for many more possibilities, as you can add the color matching to the props/clothing of the client (do you have a how-to video in the digital creations club?). The hat in the middle picture is adorable- and of course, it helps when the kid on the picture is cute too- espescialy in the first one
Thanks Scott, your advice and tips are like a jumping board- helps us in leaps and bounds!
OMGosh! I can’t wait to get these tomorrow. My heart was beating so fast when I saw that you had new ideas. My favorite is…..well heck, I can’t choose. Thanks Scott! You’ve given us even more to work with.
