Snake Home Poster
This was a personal Photoshop project of mine inspired by a post I saw on Facebook. The original post was for dog owners and it made me want to make my own version of it, but with snakes instead since that's what I own (among other animals). I used photos of my snakes Baron, my corn snake, and Tiberius, my ball python. First, I removed the backgrounds of the photos. For Baron, I had to get rid of the glare that was in the photo from the light reflecting off his terrarium glass. Then I changed the color mode to grayscale and saved the individual images as PNGs. After that, I found a stock photo of a jungle leaf background on Google Images. I then put everything together in Photoshop and added text. I thought the message in the original poster was a bit sassy in a bad way, so I took a more friendly approach when writing the text. Once I was done with my project, I posted it on multiple snake groups I'm a member of on Facebook. Someone from one of my Facebook snake groups saw it and wanted to pay me to make a custom one for her. She ended up being my first client. She sent me photos of some of her snakes for me to use and asked me to slightly change the text. She was really happy with the result.
