Photoshoot Ideas to Borrow From Taylor Swift, New Influencers Are You Reading?

Taylor Swift’s album photoshoots are among the greatest in the world today. They’re elegant, inventive, and perfect for your own picture shoot concepts. Swift is the queen of a lot of things, and photoshoots are no exception. The feeling expressed in the Fearless photoshoot differs from the emotion recorded in the red photography. Each shot tells a tale, something Swift has perfected in every element of her art, which comes as no surprise.

1. Next to gold jewelry, place a champagne glass: The narrative of the “champagne troubles” is really tear-jerking. You can still make an exciting shot for your Instagram page with a champagne glass and some gold jewelry. Simply arrange these objects on your kitchen table or similar flat, uncluttered surface. Shine a little light in their direction to make things gleam and sparkle. Sprinkle some gold glitter in between your pieces if you have any on hand. If you’re going to edit the shot later, make sure to increase the contrast and shadows to really bring out the highlights. Set the mood with a line like “I dropped your hand while dancing.”

2. Under A Tree, Hold Hands with Your SO: Taylor’s characters do not all fall in love with one other. However, the music video for “willow” presents a narrative that finishes happily ever after. By the end of the film, the pair are hand-in-hand heading out a door, seemingly thrilled about the new life they are about to embark on. Ask your SO to stand with you under one of the trees in your backyard or neighborhood for this photo opportunity. Hold hands while the camera shutters, and even shoot a couple of photos of you going toward each other as if to say, “We’ve finally found one other.” You don’t have to choose a willow tree this time.

3. With a pair of binoculars, sit on a bench: When you first hear “Coney Island,” you might be motivated to go outdoors and find a bench for this photo. Sit on it with a set of binoculars in hand and pretend to be looking for your soul mate. Fellow Swifties may notice how this concept is a re-enactment of the tragic lyric, “I’m sitting on a bench in Coney Island, wondering where my kid went?” Other Easter eggs, such as a beachy background, an open brochure exposing the centerfold, and a birthday cake, might be included if desired.

4. Place a card from your grandmother next to your feet: Taylor’s late grandmother, Marjorie, is said to be the inspiration for the moniker “Marjorie,” according to Elle. Taylor’s grandma’s lessons and all the parts of her she wishes she still had, such as old grocery store receipts, are the subject of the song. Using this photo concept, write a love letter to your own grandmother, grandfather, aunt, mother, or any other key persons in your life. Place a note they wrote you or a scrap of their handwriting near your feet to symbolize that they’re your ancestors. This shot will also pay homage to the adventurous line, “You’d always go past where our feet could touch,” which appears in the song.
