Product Photography

With it now getting colder outside, the pandemic slowing things down means practice with different subjects. I set up my studio in the family room and wanted to do this Southern Eggnog bottle. I did this using one flash and putting it all together in Photoshop. I took pictures from all directions, including the top, and used what I felt I needed.

Ok, the picture is done; what could I do to make it more enjoyable? I have been practicing doing composites and start with the composite of the stars in the background. That looked fine but still boring. I added text and liked what I saw, but I felt it was still missing something. I thought to myself, and I wish I would have taken a picture of a glass? Looking at stock glasses, I found nothing that looked right with this picture. I came up with an idea using Adobe Dimension and make my glass. Put the glass in the image and finally got what I enjoyed.

Happy Holidays
