In this behind-the-scenes photography video, I’m sharing how I use the Telesin Mini Fogger to add atmosphere, depth, and cinematic mood to creative portrait and still life photography. This compact, remote-controlled fog machine has become one of my favourite tools for creating smoke and dry ice effects on set, especially when working in small spaces or with delicate props. I’ll show you how I used it during an Ophelia-inspired portrait shoot with model Skye Medusa, including how to hide the fogger inside vases, behind flowers, and even on water to create soft, moody fog without heat or disruption. If you’re a photographer looking to experiment with fog effects, smoke machines for portraits, creative still life styling, or cinematic photography techniques, this video shows real-world use and results rather than theory.
