I've been having great fun taking pictures of my makes in the garden, as if they're real/alive and I've discovered them.
Love how you show others' photography styles in action- seeing the examples really helps me understand.
Your photography sounds amazing!!! 📸
This morning, I was talking to my sister to sell the toys I made, but the problem was putting pictures on Instagram. We were talking about how to take pictures and we didn't know how to take them. I can't tell you how happy I am that you made this video and uploaded it today, thank you very much, it really helped, I love you keep going😍🥰🥰🥰(I used google translate)
What good timing! I'm so glad the video helped! And that was a really good translation! 📸📸📸
Love this video, I wish there were more like them out there! I see so many people post pictures of their beautiful work, yet a bad picture does not do them any justice and takes away from the work.
Yes! It's wonderful to share all that hard work with a good photo! 📸📸📸
This was a good video! Thanks for sharing your and the other amigurumi makers tips! :)
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you found the video helpful. ❤️❤️❤️
I have always loved your pictures. I can always tell they are yours without even seeing your name. Great advice! I’m sure this will help us all for our photos. I love natural light too! Great video!❤️ flowers help but I love your antique pieces the best. Have a great weekend Elise. Portrait mode is my favorite, love the blur too. Hides so much. 😂
Thank you so much, Jersey! I'm so glad you liked the video! You also have great photos! ❤️❤️❤️
I love your thumbnails
They're just so cute 😍
Thank you so much! 💖🧶💖🧶
A really awesome and informative video, Elise. Thanks! I love hearing about new designers too.
I'm so glad you liked it! 💓🌻🍄
thanks for the tutorial on taking better photos, this is the hardest part for me. You've been so good for my instagram feed, it's much better now, lol! Thanks!
That makes me so happy!! I'm so glad the video helped! 🍄🌻💓
Because i give away a lot of my amigurumi, i often take a picture of it. Unfortunately i almost always lose the pictures. So last month i made an Instagram page for all the things i crochet. I only came to the conclusion i am not a good photographer haha. So this video comes at the right time, thank you very much!
Photography is tough! Having photos of your finished objects is a nice reminder of everything you've made! I sometimes forget if I don't have a photo to remember the projects! Hope the tips were helpful! 📸👵🏻📸👵🏻
I absolutely loved this vlog! Very informative, thank you. 🥰
I'm so glad you liked it! 📸📸
This is so awesome!!! I absolutely love how the yarn colors also tell so much about each person's photography style. For example, LittleAquaGirl had soft colors throughout, LemonYarn or SuperCuteDesign had bright colors, FoxyCrochet, Tecele, or SaraDeeCrochet had kind of highlighted yarns, DianaPatskun or ForestWool used vintage colors, and of course you, LePetitSaintCrochet, with a mix of soft colors with a vintage look. It's just so amazing how each makes their own unique world with the toys they create. It's just so beautiful... :)
Thanks again for another awesome video!
Thank you so very much. I'm so glad you liked the video and all the wonderful designers. 💓🌻🍄
Thank you for these great tips that will help me take better pictures for my Instagram account 😊

Im so glad you liked it!! Practice makes perfect (well there's no such thing as perfection, but it makes better!!)) 😂

My photos are pretty awful. I post them anyway, knowing my amigurumi deserve to be seen. Thank you for the instructions in making a better representation of my work in the photos I take. I'll work on improving!!
Your photos are always so lovely, Elise.

Hello there lovely lady! It’s getting a bit (dare I say it??) too warm here in Yorkshire now but it’s so good to see the sunshine and all the beautiful flowers now coming into bloom. Such a helpful and interesting episode, thank you, and it’s always a delight to see you in your idyllic craft room. Take care and keep sharing your joy 🧶🧵🌸
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, tips and designers! It is very warm here as well! But the flowers make it all worth it! 🍄🌻💓
@@EliseRoseCrochet 💖
Thank you so much for all the great tips and beautiful makers to follow on IG!! ❤️🌸❤️
You're so welcome! So glad you liked all those designers! 💓💓
Thanks for the tips, I'm always trying to improve and I definitely belong to the first category, at least for now! Also I discovered some new great accounts so thanks 😍
Glad you found the tips helpful. There are so many amazing amigurumi photographers out there! 📸👵🏻📸👵🏻
Excellent video - thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it!! ❤
This is an amazing video 😍😍😍
Thanks so much! 💓🌻🍄
Love this video!! I need all the photography tips I can get!!
You're a great photographer! 📸📸📸
You mentioned that Sarah says she gets down on the ground for some of her photos. I turn my phone upside down sometimes to get the lens closer to the ground when I can lay down. Like if I’m get a quick picture of my dog (cause he always lays with his tongue out on the floor), I’ll turn my phone upside down and portrait mode.
That is brilliant! Thank you for sharing!!! 📸📸📸
Love this video and the fantastic information you provided. I just need to find the app you use on your phone for editing 🧐. Have a good weekend!
It's the Lightroom app. It's a free download. ❤️
I definitely fall in the "hot mess" style 🤣🤣🤣 one day, when I grow up, I shall post clean shots 🙏🤣
Dawn, never grow up!!! Never, ever!!! We all love you just the way you are!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@EliseRoseCrochet 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤😘
I'm First 🤗🤗
Thsi is what I want now
I don't know how to take photos of my amigrumis
Im confuse of how to take photos of amigrumi for my Thumbnail photo
🙂
But I clearly know how to take photos for Thumbnail,,🤗🤗
Hope the video helps! Taking photos of amigurumi can be tricky! 📸📸📸
Love this, Elise! So helpful and all the beautiful designers you share. Will be watching and learning from this several times. xx You create such beautiful "stories" with your photographs .
Thank you so much! Don't think you need this advice, your photos are gorgeous!! 📸❤️📸❤️
@@EliseRoseCrochet ohhh that’s kind of you . It’s so helpful to see how others work to see if I’m doing things “right “ 😅😅❤️
Amazing 🩷
Thanks 😋
Thank you for this video and amazing tips! I am also thinking about selling my amigurumis, and all these designers... what a beautiful work!! Ideas are popping out of my brain right now! I am more on the clean side... need to find out how to put the @yourname on the photo... anyway, THANK YOU agaaaaain!!!
You are so welcome! You can add any text you want in Canva, which is free to use! Definitely check it out! 📸📸📸
Oh thanks, I’ll check that out!
9:08 what type of paper is the blue one on the left? It looks much longer than regular cardboard paper. I struggle so much with backdrops because I don’t want to use plain white but for colour backdrop you just have the 12x12 card stock which is not very useful for seamless backgrounds
Looks like it's poster board to me. Here's a link to different colored poster board packs on Amazon: amzn.to/3EUOOg2 You may have some locally as well. Good luck! 📸
sorry can you tell me what type of dslr camera to make the video as well as to photograph the doll?? thanks for sharing
This is the one I'm using now! It's much simpler for a beginner: amzn.to/3QMGqIC 📸
What's the best way to get them to stand?
I usually just prop something small behind them. But I've been looking at doll stands but they are kind of expensive. 🧡
Thanks for all your tips! Hopefully my questionable photography skills will improve 😂 💕
Quick question, what yarn do you use for skin tones? I like using paintbox but can never quite find a good paler/peachier colour. Any specific colours or other yarns you recommend?
Hmmm, I think the Paintbox has some pretty good skin tones. I also really like Berroco Vintage. There's also a new line of skin tone inspired yarns called Skein Tones by Lion Brand you may want to check out. I know Toni from TLYarn Crafts recently did a review of it. Hope that helps! www.lionbrand.com/collections/skein-tones ❤
@@EliseRoseCrochet ok, thanks so much!
☺️💖👍👍
