The Smirnoff Vodka photo shoot
The Smirnoff vodka bottle. Crisp. Sharpe. Sophisticated.
I do enjoy table top photography especially as I can control the lighting, leave the set up and return once I’ve had a moment to try and comprehend why I can’t seem to perfect the set up. I enjoy the challenge of reflecting light, I enjoy the end result.
I decided I would use Smirnoff Vodka as my subject as I wanted to experiment with working with glass and progress my perfume shots to more of a challenge. Comparing this to that of the perfume I adopted a more simple manor through a white backdrop, clean sharp lines and choice of prop. However I felt the Issey Miyake shoot seem to capture far more of an imperceptible relationship between subject and prop than the obvious approach with the Smirnoff shoot, which I prefer.
Much more practice is needed to improve my ability of using light when photographing table top subjects. I do believe (and hope) that once I can master light I will improve greatly.
Any suggestions for improvement?
