This month, we’re working with cheap props to imagine a shot, set up the scene, and then photograph the results. The only rule is that your props should be very cheap, or free.
You’re not limited to what kind of prop you use. As we discussed at our January workshop, some suggested prop ideas include:
- Bubbles
- Copper pipe
- Confetti
- LED lights
- Toys
- Sparklers
- Compact disc
- Balloons
- Mirrors
- Candy
- Crystal lens ball

Here is your challenge assignment:
- Select a cheap prop to use (even better, experiment with several!)
- Set up your scene using your prop.
- Take lots of photos and then select what you feel is your best image
- Email your photo to Luke by Sunday, February 5, 2023 Email: elementl@bresnan.net
Here are some of the examples of photos using the props listed above, that we looked at during the workshop:
