Product Photography.

Today was good.

We had the opportunity to bring in a product or two, nothing big and photograph it in a studio environment to hopefully produce something usable.

Julian had set up a number of light and scene settings in both of the studios. We split into groups and got stuck into it.

Here are a few behind the scenes snap-shots.

And here are a few of the photographs my group and i managed to produce. I felt it was a solid start to our semester of product photography.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/11 - 1/125s
Products not at an ideal angle.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/11 - 1/125s
Product angle improved.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/11 - 1/125s
Adding colour to the background.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/11 - 3.2s.
Forgot my shutter speed was wrong.
Everything now looks odd.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Change of aperture. Everything now
looks dull.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Change of aperture. Everything still
looks dull, but reflector to the right
has added to the side of box and
the inside of the coffee cup.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Bringing the soft box more in front
of the box helped add punch to more
of the box. Reflector was not in use
for this shot.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Bringing the soft box more in front
of the box helped add punch to
more of the box. Reflector was
brought back in to the right of the
box to add punch.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Bringing the soft box more in front
of the box helped add punch to
more of the box. Reflector off to the
right remained in use.

80mm - ISO 100 - f/13 - 1/125s
Much the same lighting set up as
the previous product. Reflector was
used off to the right to take away
the unflattering shadow.
