\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Hello, my name Aleksandr Vlassyuk, a photographer from Almaty, Kazakhstan. I studied graphic arts at university, and have worked more than 10 years as a graphic designer.<\/p>\n

Photography had been my hobby since childhood, and it become a passion when I created a small photography studio.<\/p>\n

I enjoy advertising photography as well as landscape, portrait and wedding photography and I shoot a lot for photo stock agencies such as shutterstock.com<\/a><\/p>\n

In this tutorial you will learn how Alexander has made this image:<\/h3>\n

Items used to create the image:<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

To create this image I used: bar of soap, scotch tape, paper clips, green leaves, strip of clear plastic.<\/p>\n

To make the soap bar stand I made a bracket from the paper clips and fixed strip of clear plastic on the back of a soap at the right for me angle. Two leaves I connected together using a double-sided scotch tape.<\/p>\n

The whole composition was set on a black plexiglass and on the back dark blue paper background drop.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/6-92.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

Now about the lighting setup:<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

On the left I used 40 x 140 cm stripbox.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/7-76.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

To separate the object from the background I used light with 10\u00b0 honeycomb grid.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/8-70.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

After taking few test shots, I decided to add diffuser in front of the stripbox to soften the light.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/9-65.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

When that was set I added another stripbox 20\u00d790 cm on top.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/10-59.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

And the last light source with 5\u00b0 honeycomb grid was places on the right to highlight the soap and leaves.<\/p>\n

To create the bubbles I used dishwashing soap mixed with a little bit of water and through a straw I blew bubbles in the places I needed.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.18.4″ src=”https:\/\/www.photigy.com\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/12-48.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n

And this is the final image<\/p>\n
