Product Research

Inspiration

Just looking at some inspiration for product photography.

 These products have been lit from the left hand side with a large soft box and possibly a reflector on the right.

This photo I liked the idea of. The photographer has constructed a fake watch and photographed it on fire and then dropped the real watch into the photo using photoshop.

Workshop

Test Shots, workshop prac - alcohol.

This was the intro to alcohol photography workshop. We had to photograph 3 different bottles and my top 3 are in the photographs below.

Glass isn't a particularly easy thing to shoot, but once you get the hang of it it isn't all too bad. 

The most complicated thing to play with were the reflections in the glass of things around like walls, cameras, tables etc.

I ended up building a very very high podium for the first image which worked well in not having as many reflections so I decided to use it in the other two shots as well.
