📸 SAME SETUP. SAME BALLOONS. TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT COLOURS. 👀🎈
No… I haven’t edited one of these photos. 😂
These are two photos of the exact same baby shower setup, taken just seconds apart — but look at how different the pink balloons appear! 🤯
💕 One was taken using Live Photo
💕 One was taken using Portrait Mode
And this is something I think is REALLY important to talk about when ordering balloon decor or event styling…
📸 PHOTOS DO NOT ALWAYS SHOW COLOURS EXACTLY AS THEY LOOK IN REAL LIFE.
We get so many screenshots of images that have different modes on the camera / filters to make the colours pop so we ALWAYS advise that it may not be the same colour.
Lighting, camera settings, white balance, exposure, shadows, the venue lighting AND even the way your phone processes the image can completely change how a colour appears.
The pink in this setup looked beautiful in person — but depending on which photo you look at, you could genuinely think I had used two completely different shades! 😅
So when you’re choosing your balloon colours from a photo, please remember that what you see on your screen isn’t necessarily what your eyes will see at the event. 🤍
As an event stylist, I always do my best to match colours as closely as possible to the inspiration/design agreed — but no camera can guarantee a 100% true-to-life colour match.
And honestly… this is why seeing balloons in person can make such a difference! 🎈
