I wanted to share a portrait that was created using Digital Backgrounds and Photoshop.

As a photographer we’re always looking for new fun ways to create portraits for a clients. This can be frustrating at times when you just don’t feel like being creative or you’re just not seeing the vision.

Usually an Artist…like a photographer, needs inspiration to get the creative flow moving. That’s what I wanted to do with this idea that Lisa and I came up with for one of our Digital Creations. It’s called “Summertime Lemonade”.

Digital Background Lemonade

Forget that it’s a Digital Background and Prop we created for a minute and just study the idea. You can easily model this idea by using some stuff right around the house.

Here’s what you’ll need:

1. A nice day with some blue skies. Usually a field or park is a good background that has flowers or a pond.

2. A glass or plastic pitcher for the lemonade and glasses

3. Lemonade in the pitcher and glasses

4.Wire or wicker stand

5. Lemons to include around the tray

6. Optional: Include some Sun Flowers

That’s basically all you’ll need to create this portrait.

I hope you can see that this an easy way for you to create a new portrait idea for your clients very easily.

  1. Great idea Scott and Lisa. This one will come in handy during the summer months.

    Scott, as always you have come up with a great idea to add value to what we can offer our customers, thank you so much. The digital creations set us apart from other photographers and we can use them to complete our packages. Wouldn’t this make a fantastic wall portrait printed as a 16×20 or larger and could be used with teens as well as with the younger boys and girls. I can see how great it would work with siblings in it together. Again, thanks.

    Cute idea. Some girls had a lemonade stand in our neighborhood last week (might be another idea) to catch the folks coming out of church. I didn’t get a chance to photograph them, though.

    Great tip!! I love to be creative! I wonder is that something you have to be born with??

    This weekend I am setting up a photobooth for a 20 year school reunion for a friend of mine. I am not walking around capturing images but the guest could come to me.

    I read several articles on photobooth. I love the images from http://www.boothtruthphotos dot com. I also like the article from Davild Cline using a macbook with the built in web.

    Thanks for stirring up my creative thinking-flow!
