I was eager to learn from Ashraful, and grateful that he was willing to share his knowledge and creative process. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading his book, and refer back to it frequently. I have had so much fun completing my version of some of the case studies, and I am eager to try many more of them.

My friend, Amy, recently started a 365 photo project – taking photos every day, for a year.
At first, her images were quite interesting and provided an insight into her life.
But as a young mother, working from home, and dealing with chores…
Her time was limited and she hardly ever had the chance to leave the house to shoot.
(And there are only so many photos you can take of your cats, garden, and family!)
Disappointed, but not wanting to give up, she came to me for advice…
I told her that if she wants to take interesting photos from home, she has to get creative!
And lucky for her, I knew just the person to help.
My friend, Ashraful, captures creative compositions with everyday objects… all from the comfort of his home.
He was kind enough to help. But to be honest, I was unsure if Amy would be able to keep up – she was only a beginner at the time.
But WOW… a week later her photos left me speechless and spell-bound.
The images were so wonderful, mesmerizing, and compelling… I knew I needed more.
Ashraful captures zero-gravity tea parties… colorful flowers flowing from a cup… violins dancing in the forest…
His style relies on creating unique compositions to tell magical stories about mundane objects.
All from the comfort of his home.
I tried it myself, and it is one of the most magical experiences I’ve ever had with photography.
It’s no wonder his unique style has attracted over 120,000 followers online and over 100 students to his private workshops.
He’s pioneered a unique style of photography that has inspired thousands of photographers.
He’s the Harry Potter of magical still life photography, so it only made sense to join forces and create this…
This 267-page eBook shows you how to capture 30 magical still-life photos that most people don’t know how to shoot.
This includes fire, splashes, levitation, freezing motion, and more…
Without investing in complicated lighting and equipment, from the comfort of your home.
All you need is our eBook and printable “Spell Cards” (more on those below).
The only limit is your imagination, and with 30 of Ashraful’s best ideas to choose from… you’ll never be short of inspiration.
With “The Magical Photography Spellbook”, you’ll soon discover:
The case studies average 4 pages in length, with dozens of photos to walk you through every step.
You don’t have to read the book all at once, or even in order.

Here’s what Ashraful has to say about his exciting new product:
We wanted to make the process of capturing these photos as easy as possible.
So Ashraful worked with our design team to create case studies and cheat sheets for each image.
The process is simple:
The “Spell Cards” detail how to create each image. This includes location, composition, and lighting.
Whether you’re a student wizard or an almighty sorcerer… these photography “Spell Cards” make the process easy.
It’s a common misconception that taking images like Ashraful’s is time-consuming and requires lots of props, stands, and editing.
The truth is, outside of a few basic accessories additional tools are rarely needed.
And you won’t spend more than about 15 minutes in Photoshop.
Ashraful focuses on composition and color theory when setting up the shot. He uses ordinary objects and natural elements to make enchanted scenes like these:

And after some further experimentation, your photos are imaginative… extraordinary… and enchanting…
The images are so exciting and fun to shoot, you won’t stop shooting until your batteries are dead.
All you need is some simple setups with basic gear to produce stunning results like these…

He is able to make his captivating images come to life in a magical way: by creating cinemagraphs.
They are still photos where a small part of the image is moving. Just like an enchanted painting from Hogwarts.
Ashraful broke down the secrets to this magic spell in an extra chapter and included two short video tutorials too.

While Ashraful’s images don’t require long hours of editing, he does process them.
He makes the colors more vibrant… and he uses Photoshop to remove props used for staging the scene.

Ashraful was kind enough to include the original PSD files of 3 of his most popular images:
The Garden, Winter Spirit, and Tale of the Waves and Wind.

For that reason, time is very much “Of the Essence”… I can’t stress the time-sensitiveness of this offer enough.

267 pages. But you don’t need to read it all at once, or even in order. Simply pick an image that interests you, and read the Spell Cards to get started.
Each image takes between 15 minutes to an hour to capture, and you can continue to experiment for hours with the same concept if you wish.
All you need is your camera (or a phone with a good camera). Ashraful shoots mainly with a Nikon D850 and 2 lenses: 105 mm and 85 mm. But an entry-level DSLR and kit lens would work too. You also need a tripod.
It’s helpful to understand how exposure works, but aside from that, everything you need to know is covered in the ebook.
Ashraful does rely on Photoshop to transform the look and feel of his images, but he walks you through exactly what you need to do to achieve the same results.
