Glitter Photoshoot

A while ago I found a picture and fell in love, just like every teenager does.

This was the picture:

Personally, I'm a bit jealous of her hair. I also love the lighting, shadows, and pose. Plus her shirt is cute. On top of all that, the glitter positioning is flawless. Not too much, not too little.

I don't know who originally took it, but I've seen it on Instagram, WeHeartIt, and Tumblr.

Anyway, a week or so ago, I was looking for it on Google and found a couple others like it that I liked.

I made a collage.

Aaaaaand I decided that I really wanted to have a photoshoot inspired by these pictures.

They used some pretty massive pieces of glitter if you really look at them. So I wanted to buy some confetti to get the same effect that these girls did.

But I couldn't.

And I didn't want to spend the money.

Story of my life, right?

But I did have some craft glitter and micro glitter from a while ago.

So, that came out of my closet.

In the bathroom, I slapped myself (lightly) ;) with water and sprinkled glitter on where the water was.

Next I leaned forward and fanned the glitter to get excess off. (but all it really did was get glitter everywhere.)

Then I set up camp in the empty room in my house.

After I had taken a couple pictures with the silver craft glitter,

I decided that it wasn't sparkly enough.

Yep.

More glitter.

A few more slaps of water and a whole lot of purple micro glitter later,

I was back in front of the camera.

These are some of my favorites in Black and White:

  

 Next are some of my favorite color pictures from the shoot:

(I thought that the glitter looked quite pretty as bokeh, so I had to take a picture)

And the photoshoot is not complete without a blooper/crazy picture.
