If you want ideas for getting creative with portrait photography while on a shoestring budget, check out the work of the Mexican photographer Omahi. In addition to sharing his imaginative work, Omahi also shows behind-the-scenes photos of how they’re made.
His photos feature a wide range of styles creative using mostly ordinary things you may have sitting around at home.

Omahi often constructs simple, makeshift sets to turn his ideas into photos.
All kinds of mundane locations can be used for close-up portraits.
Here are some more examples of Omahi’s work and glimpses of how they were made:
