Photography is a creative pursuit. Capturing an image as it appears to the

eye is only one way and possibly the less fun approach to creating photos.

Like any other tools, the tools of photography can be used in limitless

combinations to push the boundaries of creativity, and some of the most

striking images are made when those tools are used for things their original

inventors could never have imagined. Such is the way with special effects

photography.

What do I mean by ‘special effects photography’? That’s actually pretty hard

to define, because there are so many creative uses for cameras, lighting,

processing software, and all the tools of photography. What most people

would probably understand by special effects – or SFX – is an image with

a striking visual element or elements that were created in a way that isn’t

immediately apparent just by looking at the image. This is of course a

subjective definition, but it will suffice for the purpose of this book.

In the following chapters we will take a look at a number of photographic

techniques for creating interesting and unusual images, using examples,

detailed walkthroughs and lots of explanation so that you can take what

you read here and try them yourself. By pulling back the curtain and

revealing how these striking effects are created, you will be able to add the

techniques to your own photography toolkit and express your creativity in

new ways.

My goal with this book is to help you learn new techniques to get creative

with your camera and create incredible images that will have your friends

asking, ‘How did you do that?’
