5 Reasons We Love Atmosphere Aerosol 'Fog in a Can'

Several months later, at a proposal shoot our friend and videographer, Daniel, pulled out an aerosol can and started spraying it in the air, filling the forest with a gorgeous environmental haze.

Fjadrargljufur Canyon Adventure Session

A wondrous mist, along with eerie, hovering and constant moving fog filled the air above the over-worldly landscape. Like an unwound watch, it was like time ceased to move forward.
