CJ and I wanted to give a behind the scenes look at how the last two Paperclip Family photos were set up. Mounting putty and spaghetti sticks were used to keep them in pose, which I then removed in Photoshop.
Spaghetti sticks? Yeah! I'll probably get some normal stands if I ever find some but, in the meantime, I'll use pretty much anything to balance my little friends. 😁

My upcoming photo book will also have a brief behind the scenes of one of my Paperclip photos. I hope it proves inspiring to others with how photos like these are created. 📎
This is so generous of you! Not everyone is willing to share "how" they do something. Thank you very much for the insight.
You are a good photographer in every expect. Creative, hard working, skillful and on top of that you are funny!
@30pics4jackiesdiamond - Thank you so much Jackie!! This one did take a while but was fun so the time just flew by. Oh wow a youtube channel, I've mulled in over before. Maybe one day...as long as I get help from CJ. 😆
@monikozi - Wow, thank you so such incredibly encouraging words!! I really enjoy your style as well. I'm grateful to all the photographers who have shared their knowledge with me in books, videos, 365, and in real life. It such a great feeling to see someone inspired by my work and then become even more creative themselves. :)
