12 Inspired Mirror Photoshoot Ideas
4. Car mirror photoshoot
A classic photoshoot location is inside a cool car if you have access to one! To take this photoshoot idea to the next level, consider incorporating the car’s mirrors into your photos, and shoot images of your model (whether it’s yourself or someone else) via these mirrors. These are timeless images with a twist!
5. Mirrors in a field
Bringing a mirror (or multiple mirrors!) outdoors to a space like a beautiful, wide-open field could make for a really interesting mirror photoshoot idea. Being out in nature, the mirror itself could be used to reflect any number of interesting visual features/vistas. This one is pretty easy to do for free if you have any natural areas near you.
However, maybe you’d like to rent a location for this photoshoot and ensure you won’t be interrupted. In that case, what about this big open field (measuring more than 21,000 square feet, to be exact!) in Houston, Texas?
6. Simple bedroom mirror selfies
We’re all about the unusual mirror photoshoot ideas, but if you have a nice big mirror in your bedroom, be sure to tidy things up a bit and then take some self-portraits! You’ll be in a familiar and comfortable space and this vibe will definitely come through in your photos.
7. Mirrored twins photoshoot
Are you a twin or do you know a set of twins who would be willing to model for your next photoshoot? If so, involving a pair of twins in a mirror photoshoot could be a visually stunning and even funny possibility. Perhaps you can snap some photos where the viewer will be challenged to figure out whether they’re looking at twins, mirror reflections, or even both!
Find a space with a lot of mirrors like this elegant dance studio in Bailey’s Crossroads, Virginia, and get to explore all the visual possibilities! In fact, a Peerspace user who booked this dance studio for their own photoshoot shared this review after the fact: “Fabio was excellent and the space is just as advertised. Clean, spacious and air conditioned. The team is extremely attentive and we will definitely refer to them again.”
8. Mirror in front of the subject’s face
Using a round or oval-shaped mirror as your key prop, you can have your subject hold this mirror up in front of their face so it looks like their face has been replaced with a mirror.
These will be some surreal photos. But if this is well-suited to your creative aesthetic, it will make for a really cool photoshoot!
9. Water reflections as mirrors
Perhaps you’d say that we’re stretching the definition of a mirror by including an idea involving reflections on the surface of water as one of our mirror photoshoot ideas. But think about it – reflections in water were basically the original mirror! Plus, if you use a body of water such as a pond or lake in your photoshoot, you’ll have a reason to take photos out in nature, which always enhances a photoshoot!
Consider visiting a location like this beautiful cottage on Lake Wylie in Charlotte, North Carolina. That way, you’ll have a whole lakefront space to yourself for your photoshoot.
