The lighthearted Frederike Helwig Brandon Flowers shoot incorporates over half a dozen fake birds.

[Musician Brandon Flowers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pour-homme-and-neighborhood), captured by photographer Frederike Helwig, looks like a complete gentleman in dapper [suits and bow ties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mens-wearhouse), while sporting a straight face, but the [parrot accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoologist-lovebird) add a little charm to the sometimes-stuffy suits. Take a look at the gallery to see more of these silly photographs from the Frederike Helwig Brandon Flowers Shoot.

**Implications** - A creative way to jazz up a bland white backdrop during product campaign shoots can be through the use of photo editing. Adding creative details -- just as the Frederike Helwig Brandon Flowers Shoot does with birds -- can be both eye-catching and cost effective.
