Creative Pack Shot Photography

Simon — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 12:19:02 +0000

I was approached by Red Splash, an agency in Basingstoke, to shoot some creative images for a Sheffield knife maker. Their product range is to be launched in the USA and the brief was to creative some striking photographs in different styles to be used for print and web at the product launch.

The high contrast lighting and clean lines of this image accentuate the product.

Two contrasting backgrounds created in the studio are chosen to harmonise with the product.

Again, this Jordanian Army knife needed a background that was in harmony with the feel of the knife.

If you have a need for creative studio photography or product pack shots, please get in touch.

Environmental Portraits

Environmental portraits matter when the location tells you something about the subject. They can be more interesting than standard studio shots and can be enhanced by portable lighting, shot using daylight or, as is quite common, a mixture of the two.

Things of Beauty

It can be easy to make images of beautiful things but sometimes difficult to avoid lapsing into clichė. It can be harder to make eye catching images of everyday objects but rest assured if your living depends on selling products and items please call or email for a quotation. Then your products will sell themselves.

Your online identity is only as good as the material that accompanies it. Obviously well written copy is important but research has shown that images are many times more likely to make an impression on the viewer than a paragraph or two of text.

The dreaded group shot. We work really quickly to minimise the hassle.
