Product Photography

Movie Night

Well, in Ohio, it's going to be a cool weekend. It's time for my wife to sit at home and watch some Netflix. When I think of movies, I also think of popcorn. With that in mind, I took a picture of some popcorn with my iPhone, thinking about using this picture sometime.

Popcorn with the iPhone

With the help of Adobe, I thought I would make a fun add, and this is what I came up with.

Well, its time to sit back and warm up and have some popcorn. Maybe even think about what will the next picture be.

Great Meal

Last week, Lisa and I went to a local restaurant in Bryan, Ohio, and I think I may have had the best Veal Parmesan I ever had with Gnocchi. This year, I have been doing more with my iPhone, and this was no exception. It was not the best light, but it worked for me for a quick picture. Now, off to the next restaurant and/or city.

The Grasshopper

One of my favorite drinks is the Grasshopper. We always looked forward to it after our Christmas dinner. During St Patrick's Day, the restaurant we were at was offering it. I had to have one. It was so good. Out came the iPhone, and I took a picture, not knowing if I would use the photo or not. Learning Adobe Illustrator, I made this layout for practice and fun.

Valetines Day

Happy Valentine's Day to you. The month of, or the day of Love. For lovers we go out to eat with the one we love. But what does a photographer love? Shooting pictures is what I love to do. I wanted to take some time and do some macro photography along with the product. What better than my wedding band? The setup was easy; I used constant light. I use my Canon R5 with a 90mm macro lens on a tripod. I decided to do focus stacking, and here is what I came up with.

February

The month of February has a lot that is going on. For me it’s about Love. This means self-love, looking at family and friends, and looking at others who either need love or love others. Hmm, I wonder where I heard that before. We think of Valentine the Day of Love. Yes, being an Aquarius has a special day for me during this month, and I have one more notable day that means a lot to me, and that is my marriage to a very special person. February, make it the best this year, and find and get Love. Don’t forget to give love. You never know who you just may help.
