style.play.work.shop.

style.play.work.shop. is a styling workshop created by compai & minted condition. we pick household objects, style them and photograph the composition. great practice for stylists and bloggers, to style photos within specific constraints. we’ll show off the different outcomes on our blogs. you’ll see many different visions come to light from the same items.

visit the compai blog to see justina’s picks from our photo shoot and visit the flickr pool for more of our favorite shots!

join in for the next round with even more bloggers!

next deadline: tuesday november 2
next objects: ribbon, envelope, jewelry, squash, bottle

if you would like to participate leave a comment on this post and we’ll send you an invite to the flickr pool. upload your photos there and we’ll feature our favorite shots from the group along with our own for next month’s style.play.work.shop.
