Wine Bottle Product Photography
This project is a studio exploration into the versatile world of commercial bottle photography. Building on specialized training, my objective was to demonstrate how a single, meticulously photographed product can be adapted for diverse visual contexts, from dramatic low-key to clean high-key presentations.
Lighting & Adaptability: Black and White
The core of this project involved a unique technical challenge: capturing the bottle so that it could be seamlessly integrated onto both black and white backgrounds. I carefully engineered the lighting to sculpt the bottle's silhouette and highlight its unique features, particularly the elegant shape and the distinct gold foil on the cork. This precise approach ensures that the liquid's clarity and the label's details are perfectly rendered, regardless of the background.
By showcasing the same photograph on both a black and a white background, I demonstrate a deep understanding of light manipulation and post-production flexibility. This technique allows for maximum versatility, providing clients with assets that can be used across various marketing channels; from a sophisticated, dark ambiance to a bright, clean ecommerce setting, all from a single capture. This highlights efficiency and technical expertise in commercial photography.
