If you've ever been super envious of those perfectly styled blog photos you see all over Pinterest, I've got the solution for you! You don't have to spend a butt ton of money to build your library of styling props you just need a keen & creative eye. First off, make sure you have a rough idea of your blog's style. You can start by understanding and creating a style guide and creating a brand board of inspiring images over on Pinterest. When you do this you're less likely to say 'hey that looks nice!' to something that may not fit in with your blog's (or other social media outlet) vibe. Understanding the vision of the posts your write and the presence you want to create will help you say yes to better photo props.
