Trick Photography and Special Effects by Evan Sharboneau
10:22 PMBelieve it or not, you don’t have to own super expensive equipment or be some kind of camera wiz to take high quality camera shots like these…
Because of the practical shortcut secrets you’re about to find out, you’ll quickly be able to skip the "amateur photographer" stage that usually takes years to get past… and you’ll be a much better photographer from the very next time you take a shot.
If you want to be able to take the really cool photos – those crazy special effects images others just can’t figure out – what I’m about to share with you will blow your mind…
You see, there are a handful of simple, easy techniques that can totally transform how you use and view your camera – and they’re so quick to grasp, they’ll make a difference for you the very next time you snap a picture.
So up until now, the only alternative has been to take expensive college or evening courses, and buy a ton of pricey equipment.
And I don’t know about you, but I don’t have thousands of dollars to throw at new cameras, lights, and to enroll in courses.
I’m one of those guys who constantly takes pictures. I drive people crazy, always snapping something. You know?
Trouble was, I wanted to take all these cool shots, and I had all these great ideas… but I didn’t know how to get started… and I didn’t think I had all the specialist equipment I’d need…
And I did it, through necessity. I’m passionate about this stuff, and I couldn’t rest until I could get the kinds of pictures I wanted to get.
I wanted to be able to do some of the photography tricks I saw people doing there. All those cool visual effects, that out of this…
