I placed a collection of fresh green limes inside a martini glass. A lit green candle and a green apple accompany the arrangement, creating a harmonious composition.
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.
Oranges in Glass with Hydrangeas
I wanted to create an inviting scene using mandarin oranges and a beautiful martini glass. I placed four oranges inside the greenish glass and added two small oranges at the base. I added a large orange at the base as well. A lit orange candle sits beside the oranges. I enhanced the background by adding a warm texture. The result is a simple picture that exudes warm lighting and gives the scene a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
The next image is similar but instead of a candle, I place purple hydrangeas into a terracotta pot. Again, I added a warm and inviting background to enhance the beauty of the main image.
What says Halloween more than pumpkins and skeletons. I placed some mini pumpkins in a glass goblet. A rich orange pumpkin and a small cross-legged skeleton sit together. A lit orange candle on an iron candle-holder adds warmth to this autumn themed scene. I photographed this against a white backdrop and added a greenish texture post-processing.
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.
Oranges and Lilies
I placed some mandarin oranges into a goblet. I added some gorgeous orange lilies into a blue glass vase. I placed a terracotta pot on the side for a rustic touch. I photographed this against a white backdrop and added textures to give this photo a painted look.
Peeled Mandarin Orange
I decided to photograph a macro shot of a Mandarin orange against a black background. I arranged the sections of this peeled orange to display their vibrant and juicy interiors. The contrast between the orange segments and the dark background highlights the fruit’s natural texture and color and gives this image a dramatic flair.
Pink Flowers and Bosc Pears on Black
I always love a still life photographed against a black backdrop. I find the stark contrast between the bright, beautiful elements of the pink flowers, green candle, brown Bosc pears, and orange ceramic vase creates a gorgeous and amazing composition. The black table creates the lovely reflections which add to the overall beauty of this image.
Yellow Lilies and Pears
A vibrant yellow lily stands elegantly in a glass vase beside a martini glass holding a pear, with two more pears placed on a soft green cloth. The muted background enhances the natural colors and simple beauty of the arrangement.
Three Green Pears
I gathered three ripe pears in my studio and arranged them in a row against a black and then white backdrop. Each image has a different feel to it. Not sure which I like better. All these images were taken in studio. The colors on the second image were added as a texture. The image against the black backdrop were arranged on a shiny black table. Their vibrant green color and smooth, glossy surface give them a fresh and appetizing appearance. They look good enough to eat.
