Some of the best props for pictures!

#1 Scarves

Scarves and jackets are a great way to give your arms something to do during photos! This is especially a great option for those that are insecure about the upper half of their body. Anything to allow models to be more comfortable!

Additionally, they can be used as beautiful accessories that’ll make an image pop. Make sure to coordinate the colors with your outfit and the environment around you.

#2 Flowers

Flowers are a great way to give a pop of color to a photo. Use them in a bouquet, spread out around your subject, put them in hair, or overall just get creative!

#3 Glasses

This once again is a great way to give your hands something to do in pictures. It can give your outfit a great accessory and by shielding your eyes, it can work to make a person look more mysterious.

#4 Bags

If you need a pop of color, an extra bit of texture, or just something to carry your things, add a bag!

#5 Mirrors

This is a great way to easily take a self-portrait of yourself, additionally, you can use the reflections in a creative way, such as to show a reflection of the sky while the mirror is on the ground.

#6 Pets!

There is no easier way to add joy and happiness to a picture than inviting your favorite furry friend to join you in pictures.

#7 Smoke machine/smoke bombs

If you want to create a mysterious or hazy look to your photos, make sure to grab a smoke machine! Most of them you will need to plug in so make sure you have access to an outlet while you’re shooting!

Smoke bombs are typically colored and can be purchased at any local firework store. These are good to use if you’re doing a mythical/fairytale photoshoot!
