Furniture Workshop

Prep as usual



Today we were required to shoot at least 2 pieces of furniture, and obtain at least 3 shots from each shoot
1) A typical brightly lit commercial style photograph for use in a catalogue.
2) A detail shot
3) An experimental lighting/composition shot

First shoot involved photographing the fridge in the studio.

Item number 2 was a red fabric chair.

Fashion Workshop - Studio

As always, the obligatory research first



Ok so the workshop today revolved around fashion photography in the studio. Kate Luke organised some models and makeup artists and then took us through a typical fashion shoot.

The group as a whole helped set up the lights and then took turns photographing the models.

Here are some of our results (these images are unretouched)

Studio Folio Research

Today I happened across an interesting site with some tutorials about photographing cars and post processing the images. Quite an interesting site

Food Workshop

tFirst up, the workshop preparation



Today our task was to photograph items of food in pairs. Stations were set up in the studio to replicate natural daylight (partially due to the horrible weather on the day) and several stations also made use of the limited daylight available.

Here are Rhys and my results. We used the same natural daylight station for the duration.

Shot 1 - Chocolate biscuits.


Shot 2 - Spaghetti


Shot 3 - Kiwi fruit
