I took a beautiful pink and gold vase and added some vibrant purple lilies. Beside this pretty glass vase I put a green lit candle. As a finishing touch to this elegant scene I placed three ripe nectarines into a colorful ceramic bowl. As a background I added a texture to highlight all the gorgeous elements of this arrangement.
White Mums and Oranges
I just love how white Mums look against a black background. I took two beautiful crysanthemums and placed them in a blue ceramic pitcher. I added a few oranges to a clear glass goblet, and put an earthy terracotta pot on the side. I was happy with this lovely display.
White Chrysanthemums on Black
Two white chrysanthemums are showcased against a black background, highlighting their delicate petals and radiant appearance. The lighting accentuates the intricate details of each bloom and the contrast between the green and white petals.
Daisies and Green Apples
I was looking through my various vases to use for a still life and came upon a lovely little blue pitcher that I had forgotten about. I added white daisies and paired this with a woven brown basket filled with green apples spilling out. Next I added a beautiful round gold vase to offset the blue in the little jug. For the background, I added a soft bluish overlay texture. It has an overall peaceful and serene feel.
Purple Lilies and Yellow Pears
I wanted to create a composition using pears. I found beautiful purple lilies and added them to a green glass vase. I placed a green lit candle on a wrought iron stand beside the lilies. I added a clay pot and lastly two yellow pears. I completed the scene by adding a beautiful blue background giving this arrangement a harmonious visual with soft lighting and earthy tones.
Green Apples and Orange Lily
I had some gorgeous orange lilies that I had used in another image. I created two images, one against a black backdrop, and the other against a white backdrop. Both were created in my studio with strobe lighting. It is so amazing how different they both are, yet so similar. The colored version was achieved by adding a complementary colored texture in post-processing to bring out the beauty of this lovely arrangement.
Pink Lilies and Limes
In creating this still life, I wanted to use beautiful contrasting colors to bring out the green of the limes, and the vase. I added the pink lilies to the glass vase, and placed the limes into the goblet one by one. I added a black and white ceramic jug along with a black chess piece. This beautiful arrangement was placed on a green and white cloth. To complete the theme, I created a bluish, green texture for the background.
Pink Lilies and Apples
I wanted to create a rustic composition that had both warmth and elegance. I assembled a pretty glass red vase and added pink lilies. I matched the red vase with a lit red candle on a pewter holder. I added red apples spilling out of a wicker basket. I then arranged these gorgeous elements on a green cloth for contrast. I added a complementary texture to highlight the beauty of this composition.
Pumpkins and Yellow Lilies
It is Fall and what says Fall other than orange pumpkins. I placed mini pumpkins into a martini glass, and added a green wax candle with flame. Yellow lilies in a green glass vase completed the basic composition. I then added a light blue texture for the background, which creates a warm and cozy scene.
Red Apples and Orange Lilies
I wanted to create a scene using red on red: I bought a red glass vase and I pared it with two ruby red apples. I created a staircase of candles- each one lower than the previous one. I added beautiful orange lilies to the red vase, I also placed some lovely mini yellow carnations in a small black and white ceramic vase. I added a rustic texture to the background. The scene exudes warmth and calm, complemented by the earthy tones of the setting.
