I decided to take old Instagram photos and edit them with a new photo editing app I got to make something new! The photos here are pulled from my Instagram between 2020-2023ish and then edited with Juxtaposer and stock photos!

I have been mostly taking my Insta photos from home this winter but now that there’s warmer weather I’ve been going out to shoot on different locations recently! Here’s what to bring on a location based photoshoot
1.) A water bottle and some snacks
Having water and little bit of food will help you keep going if you need to do a longer shoot
2.) Appropriate weather clothing
Even if you’re shooting a dress in the winter you’ll be grateful for having a jacket you can throw on between shots
3.) Backup Batteries
The outdoors can do strange things to tech you’ll be happy you brought them
4.) Any of your on the go lighting
It can be hard to find the perfect light so if you have stuff that works well on the go bring it along
5.) Some music!
If you’re in a place that’s conducive for it having some music is a great way to relax and get into the groove!
It’s that time of year where the spooky season is here and we celebrate spirits and death. You may be considering doing a fashion or cosplay shoot in a cemetery. There seems to be varied opinions on whether you should do this at all. It is up to your own discretion whether or not you wish to participate in this activity. Here are some tips for respectfully conducting filming or a photoshoot in a graveyard.
- Don’t sit, lean, or prop up equipment on any gravestones or monuments
- If there is a funeral going on or a large amount of mourners that day, reschedule.
- Remove or blur out any names that are visible on graves in the shot. Avoid shooting near newer gravestones
- Leave the area better than you arrived, take some time to pick up any litter you may see and be sure not to damage anything that was already there.
- If you are asked by anyone who is there at the time to stop what you are doing and leave, do not argue and respect their wishes. This is first and foremost a place to mourn.
- Be prepared for any photos you use to potentially be controversial if you post to social media, be prepared for that and be able to respond to concerns with grace.
- Don’t take anything from the cemetery
- Be sure you know the hours that it is open for visitors and only go during those hours
- Have fun and be safe!
