In this episode of The Live Snap Love Show, we're getting a little creative with one of the most playful and accessible lenses out there: the Lensbaby SOL45.

If you've ever scrolled past those dreamy, swirly, tilt-y shots and thought, "How on earth did they do that?" — this episode is for you!

We're breaking down exactly what the SOL45 is, who it's for (hint: anyone craving a little creative magic), and what makes it so different from your everyday lenses. Plus, you'll get a step-by-step tutorial so you can actually use it without wanting to chuck it across the yard, and some example photos too.

By the end of this episode, you'll know how to create those beautifully selective focus shots that make people stop scrolling and go, "Wait… did you take that?!
