levitation photography 飞

This is one of those experimental photography works that give surprising results. I did a series (seen below) for one of my courses in school last semester and it was so much fun to work with the models. Thank you so much lmy, and Ken for being my models! :) 

The photo shoot definitely required a lot of planning beforehand and also a lot of work after. But just to break it down, there are a few types of levitation photography: 

+ make-the-model-jump 
  • I really tried to make my models jump haha but we are not professional jumpers... we all fucking died trying hahahahaha it was hilarious
  • And if you do not get what I am trying to say....

And my favourite definitely has to be yowayowacamera.com.


+ moving on: photoshop-much-much
  • This type of levitation photography requires one to be versed in photoshop. Basically, the model is comfortable resting on an object that will be removed digitally. The removal of the object will create the illusion of the model being in the air.
  • In both images, my models were propped on something else and they had to look effortless while being high up in the air. Especially for the first image with my roommate. She was easily 1m up in the air and had to jump even higher for the effect of levitation.







it would be cool to see my friends trying out their own levitation photography. share with me will you? 

peace out ^^v
