iPhone, Big Mac box and no magic: the photographer made cool portraits with the help of improvised means

French photographer Philippe Echaroux has challenged himself (and those many people who claim that the success of shooting depends on the equipment) in the field of portrait photography. Instead of high-quality professional and expensive equipment, he decided to use an iPhone and lighting equipment made with a Big Mac box.

(11 photos in total)

Philippe Escharo took a flashlight, an empty Big Mac box and a plastic tube and made a semblance of a lighting device. And then he started taking pictures of people on the iPhone. Philip claims that the most difficult thing about this experiment was not to feel stupid in front of all these people.

The results exceeded all expectations.

To improve the final result, the photographer used VSCO, Photoshop FIX and Lightroom Mobile applications. All the work was done on a smartphone.
