Diamond Cameo

In April 1865 Frazer Crawford, manager of the Adelaide Photographic Company, returned from Melbourne with ‘all the latest improvements and novelties in photography’ which included a camera to make Diamond Cameo photographs which, he said, was a new style that was ‘becoming so fashionable.

Making this Diamond cameo was fairly simple however the pictures are not the same size and kind of looks wonky also it doesn’t look as good maybe next time I could add like a filter or something to make it look aged.

with this photo I got a photo of some stars and then a photo I took then I layered the photo of the stars over my photo and then turned down the opacity for the photo of the stars. and it turned out ok I think if I where to do it again and then I would turn down the opacity a bit more and take my own photo of some stars.

editing these photos all I did is shrink them down and placed them how you see them I think it turned out ok and depicts the model getting blinded by one of the studio lights. it was a mistake however it turnout to be a ok collection of photos however I would like to redo something like this to get a better effect and some more photo depicting what’s happening.
