“This self-portrait was shot in my kitchen with natural light from the sliding glass door, and the moths are textile sculptures that I made (as Moth On The Wall)! The shoot itself is a little older, but I finished editing this week and figured it would be perfect for the made at home”
by Emily Flip
“I made these 2 gowns and head pieces and brought it over to Vienna to shoot just last October!”
Models : Keeki & Allie

“Carrot – self portrait
Some time ago I created the photo series “Carrot Field” in which I decided to change the nickname from my childhood and the struggle of being a red-haired child into inspiration.”
by Darina Ithuriell
“This is a self-portrait. Everything in this photo is homemade. I create jewellery for a living so I never lack a crown or a necklace for my shoots ^_^ Both here were made by me, and I have also made the dress. Medieval(-ish) cotehardie is actually really comfy! The backdrop is made of two sheets of black paper and healing brush :D”
by Ghislaine André‎
“I’ve made the headdress by myself in march, at the beginning of the quarantine. My boyfriend has taken the picture, and I have spent a looot of time to edit it, with the help of he Nightshade preset <3
(Of course I’m also the model and the “makeup artist”)”
by Valeria Foglia
“For the “made at home” theme I present my TEATRONATURA project. For which I create every headdress and accessory by hand, study the concept, pose as a model and also perform my make-up. Here are some photos taken with the collaboration of my talented photographers: Valeria Forno Photo – Lucia Coppo Photography – Elisa Arnod“
by Yinsey Wang
“Just a little self portrait experiment! Using Moonstone and Aquamarine actions from The Color Lab!”
by ‎Danielle Alves‎ 
“I was distressed in this quarantine, wanting to create something! So, I took some self-portraits to explore my imagination. In this one, I was inspired by the portrait of Ellen Terry, made by George Frederic Watts.”
by Patrycja Marciniak
“My take at “Made at home” challenge, AKA how to turn your kitchen into a frozen lake using some plexiglass from builder’s supply and a can of Christmas spray frost 😅 The model wore a wet shirt to add to the effect “
by Lia Ko
“I made this dress for the shooting completely alone and I am still proud of it, haha! I remember I was inspired by LOTR elves and strong feminine characters and came up with the idea…then researched a bit about how to use worbla and asked my grandma if she can teach me how to sew! And that’s it. One of the coolest memories I like to look back too.”
by Hannah Dare Walker
“Merging my passion for costume and prop design with photography has been my obsession from the day I decided to pursue learning photography. I begin with an idea in my mind already knowing the image I want to create. The design work then begins as I figure out how to make what I see in my mind come to life. There is nothing like the high one feels when you look in your lens and see that dream of an idea become a reality. I am addicted to this creative life.

“Today I took the opportunity of this new challenge to make some shots with my first headdress.👑
I made it a few days ago, using this time available to learn and implement new things for my shooting and experimenting on myself.”
by Paige Elizabeth Heasman‎ 
“I wanted to share my creations for the challenge this week.
These were my very first homemade props and I was actually very happy with the way they turned out. Exactly how I wanted them to look!
I made both of the crowns and the mirror.”
by Kathy Giannoulis‎ 
“All my models are shot at home in my living room in costumes I’ve either made or assembled and then composited using a combination of my own and stock images.
I use Color Lab actions to finish all my composite images. My faves are Regal, Into the Woods and Garden of Paradise” 
by Regina Wamba
“The Made at Home challenge. I did all the makeup and hair for my muse shoot. I even made a makeshift dress out of a faux fur rug.”
