Michaels Jumps Onboard With The “Pretty Portraits, Ugly Location” Trend And Photographers Are Having A Blast!

ADVERTISEMENT

Michaels recently posted on their Social Media encouraging photographers to take photos in the aisles of their stores, and unlike other stores which enforce strict photo policies, Michaels has stated that they don’t need a release. And here’s another perk- their stores are pet friendly! (Just make sure you give the store a heads up!) You can join in by using the hashtag #Michaelschallenge! Here are a few creative images for inspiration! *All images are used with permission =)

    I view photography as an art. It's not just about learning the technicalities of the camera and editing software in order to preserve a memory, for me it's manipulating an image to match how I picture it in my imagination. I believe everyone has beautiful qualities, and I want my models to be able to see themselves in the way I see them when they look at a completed image. IG: @alexatheawkwardphotog

    This is a real test of your skills. To up the challenge, they should have a special category for people who don't have a single flower in their picture.
