  1. thanks for the visual tip…i’ve always wondered how they do it too!

  2. it’s quite expensive, but you can reach the same effect with this

    And, well, if you don’t want to spend money at all, it’s amazing how easy it is to make reflectors with strong white paper.

    Then you can play with the level option in photoshop…Et voila!

  3. I thought it was a bathtub, until I looked closely! Hmmm…I wonder if the tub would work?

  4. i think if our tubs were transluscent it might! i think the idea is that the items are softly ‘bathed’ in light from translucent filters on all sides. i think i saw a homemade one somewhere of a cardboard box with the sides cut, and paper placed on the sides… for jewelry photos.

    not sure where tho!

  5. yes you can make something like this yourself using a cone of white paper and cutting a small hole just big enough to poke the camera into

  6. Dooce.com recently linked to this DIY macro reflector box, maybe similar to the one Heather saw?
