With A Few Camera Tricks, She Can Transform Her Drab Attic Into A Magical World

By  | 

The photo series Secret Garden sees Canadian photographer Daniela Majic capturing her models in lush, dreamlike spaces full of flowers and shadows. Each model seems to dwell in a different garden, from a wintry one crystallized with ice to a beekeeper”s glade full of smoke and pollen.

So where does Majic find these places? Right in her attic! About once a month, Majic creates a new set using the materials already there, usually left over from a previous shoot. She creates the costumes and accessories for her models. She arranges the backdrops, which are composed of hundreds of spray-painted cloth flowers, and uses them to evoke a specific mood and character. Check out the amazing final photos, and take a peek behind the scenes in the videos.

The bodice part of this costume is actually rigid and features model butterflies attached to it. The butterflies on the model”s hand and in her hair are real, preserved butterflies.
