After watching this video you’ll:
- Understand how to combine flash and candlelight to create warm, moody autumn light
- Discover how I use simple props to build cozy still-life scenes
- Follow my real-time thought process behind composition and mood

About this behind-the-frame video
This photoshoot started with an old photo where I tried to recreate moonlight using flash and some candles. It’s one of those images that has always somehow followed me. So I decided to revisit it and film the entire process for you.
This isn’t a tutorial but a real behind-the-scenes peek into my creatove process. It’s an hour-long video of a real photoshoot.
You’ll be able to see how I worked with lighting, my camera settings, how I make all the creative choices, and add all the small details that bring the story together.
And there’s a small surprise waiting for you once you’re inside.

FAQ
Is this a course or just a behind-the-scenes video?
It’s not a structured course. It’s a real behind-the-scenes video from my studio. You’ll see the full process of creating an autumn still-life photo, from setup to the final image, with me explaining my thought process as I go. It’s like sitting next to me while I shoot.
Do I need any special gear to follow along?
Not at all. I’m using a flash and candlelight here, but you can follow along with whatever lighting setup you already have. The goal is to understand why certain choices work, so you can apply the same thinking to your own style and gear.
I’m not advanced with artificial light. Will I still benefit from this?
Definitely. You don’t need to be a lighting expert, but it is advisable you know how a flash unit operates. If you’ve been curious about mixing flash with ambient light but never knew where to start, this video will give you a practical, visual way to understand it.
If you’re interested in learning how a flash operates and dive deeper into artificial light for beginners, you can check this workshop.
How long do I have access to the video?
You’ll get instant and lifetime access once you purchase it, so you can rewatch it anytime you want and come back to it when you’re working on your own projects.
Meet me {Anja}
This is me! A shy girl from a small but highly picturesque country called Slovenia and an official education in ecology. Nature is my biggest inspiration, and it is pure joy to take all its beauty into my creative work.
In my mid-twenties, I felt utterly lost and didn’t know what my passion was. So, after leaving a dead-end job and feeling like the biggest loser, I took the time and figure out what I wanted in life. This is how my blog Use Your Noodles was born – from sheer love of food and, well… boredom. Little did I know that it was precisely how I’d find my passion.
My love for food, cooking, and photography got me to work for international clients daily and be featured in worldwide magazines. So whenever I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me constantly talking about photography (and you’ll have a hard time stopping me!).
Knowledge is there to be shared, and everyone deserves a chance to be a part of a supportive educational community! This is what I firmly live by.
I’m happy to have you with me so we uplevel your photography together.
