Think small

Pocket a mirror

-

Compact mirrors come in all shapes and sizes, and can be used to create interestin­g portraits too. We used a small folding mirror to create the surreal portrait (right) as we carefully angled each mirror until our subject’s eyes were aligned in all three windows.

Experiment­ing with reflection­s is key. You could even try to position multiple compact mirrors so each one frames your subject or combine them with larger mirrors. Another neat trick is to hold a mirror beneath your lens. Angle it correctly and you can split the image horizontal­ly, forming symmetrica­l reflection­s, much like a playing card.
