Ready to add something bold, beautiful, and wildly creative to your next shoot?

Whether you’re a bride chasing the perfect wedding portrait backdrop or a photographer aiming to uplevel your portfolio, these six unique props will turn heads. Each one has already been styled with love by renters from my boho dress collection — so think of this as your jumpstart to inspired shoots.

Igloos and Domes

Craving an Alaska- or Norway-inspired vibe? No passport required.

Clear igloos and domes are popping up across the U.S. Most often, they’re used as chic outdoor dining spaces. However, many restaurants will rent them during off-peak hours. So, just ask!

They create magical winter vibes, offering a unique, snow globe-like setting for your shoot.

Vintage Wooden Doors

Nothing adds rustic charm like vintage wooden doors.

The weathered texture brings soul, depth, and Wild West energy to your shoot. Don’t own any? No problem.

Visit antique or salvage shops and offer a photo trade. The chipped paint and timeworn wood are pure gold for styled shoots.

This Oklahoma shoot nailed the Western mood with a pair of vintage doors and our Phoenix gown, captured by Makayla Kay Photo.

A Vintage Car

Few props make a statement like a vintage car.

Lean against a retro convertible or pose rooftop with a city skyline. Either way, you’ll capture timeless magic.
