Do you ever look at your photos discovering a beautiful smile here, a poignant moment there? Perfect memories … if only there wasn’t this unfortunate background, or if only there wasn’t always someone with their eyes closed or looking weird!
Fixing annoying flaws in your not quite picture-perfect snaps can be easier than you think, and turning the little gems from otherwise mediocre pictures into a beautiful collage may tell your story in a much deeper and more truthful way than the limited view of a camera ever will.
In this project the photos shown above were combined to create a family portrait.
A lavishly framed picture places the family in the context of their cultural heritage and aesthetic traditions by using richly layered background details taken from the African dress.
A more understated version reproduced as a greeting card to send to friends and relatives.
