Behind the Scenes; Lens Smudge Time-lapse Video
Happy Monday, Friends. Here's the time-lapse video created for Lens Smudge Episode 5, where we bring you behind the scenes of the setup for our 80's inspired photoshoot.
It took 4+ hours to capture this scene with several "takes" and "tweaks" because we were filming for the show, plus photographing ourselves at the same time.
Have you ever tried capturing a time-lapse, and if so, what did you think? Comment below; we'd love to know!

Happy Anniversary ARP!
One year ago yesterday, we held our launch party. It's been a wild ride, but we wouldn't change a thing.
Here's to many more years of pushing boundaries, learning, growing, educating, and kicking ass!
Thank you for all of your continued support!
How to create In-Camera Effects
Did you catch Episode 5 of Lens Smudge? If not, you should because we did an 80's retro shoot, and I specifically touched on using various items in front of your lens to create special effects such as light leaks and bokeh.
I'm giving you an in-depth look today at how you can create these effects and overlays yourself.
Are there any specific items you love to use in front of your lens? Comment below; we'd love to hear about it.

Behind the Scenes with Ms. Fran Collazo
Here's a behind the scenes look into a recent collaboration we did with the REMARKABLE Fran Collazo @ms.fran.collazo
This experience was more than "just a photo shoot." Fran was gracious and trusted us with her story. We sat down as she courageously gave an intimate look into her journey, in her own words.
Fran talks about childhood, identity crisis, challenges experienced being gay, transgender, how others struggled to accept "her," and the love she found for herself and others.
We are celebrating WHAT she's been through, WHO she is and HOW she sees herself all in the hopes of helping another who may be experiencing something similar.
We are truly honored to be part of her movement and can't wait for the world to know who Fran is! The video, article, and imagery will be shared once published. Stay tuned; you won't want to miss it!

Amy Rose Productions Print Portfolio Teaser
THE EAGLE HAS LANDED! Our new print portfolio is here, and we couldn't be more excited to share this teaser. The process took several months (and rounds) before finalizing/printing.
Thank you, @jemma.dilag from @wonderfulmachine, for all of your guidance and expertise during curation. Sequencing is crucial, and this book is more than just a collection of images. Jemma carefully crafted our portfolio to tell stories that include a beginning, middle, and end.
The goal is to bring your potential client on a journey while adding surprise elements along the way. If you shoot multiple categories (ex. fashion, interior, and food), see if you can sequence the imagery together to tell a story by color, theme, or season. If combining doesn't work, keep them separate.
There are many types of books out there, but we chose to use the screw post book from @lostluggage_co. This allows us to print out individual pages and swap out the imagery with new work as needed. The process is a lot easier than printing a whole new book each time.
Send some love if you agree!
Happy New Year!
We can all agree this year has been a roller coaster ride. As we say goodbye to 2020, take time to reflect on the lessons learned. Focus on the things you can control and not the things you can't.
Don't let the past define your future. Every day is an opportunity to create the next chapter, a new beginning in your life. You can either hold yourself back with negative thoughts or kick ass and make significant changes.
Love the people who treat you right and forget about the ones that don't. It'll drain you; they're not worth the energy.
If you get a chance in life.. take it! Wishing you a Happy New Year.....and don't forget to be more awesome than you were last year!
