Item Photography
Shooting items can be a tough and rewarding experience, from food to accessories, each circumstance needs a slightly various method.
To all professional photographers out there wanted to attempt product photography, here are some quick tips that might help out.
Gear
To begin with, use a great lens, I use 70-200mm or 24-70mm, as these tend to be more versatile. Also a tripod can be handy for stability.
Get some brightness
The first thing you’re going to require is a white background, majority are shot versus WBG to take any distractions away. You might use white sheets, white papers shot on high shutter.
Lights
Lighting is pretty important, the idea is to get the product uniformly lit to prevent severe shadows, you may establish in a space with intense lights.
Framing
Easy structures tend to work better with products, so attempt to get on the very same level, and zoom in to get as much as possible.
Post Process
Processing your images afterwards can be practically as essential as taking the images; there is constantly a minimum of a small degree of processing. Remove dust areas, get rid of sound, boost direct exposure if required, modify white balance, color boost/change contrast if needed and hone. You’ll most likely find you might spend as much time processing as you do taking the photos.
Real settings I utilized ranges from f/16 to f/18 at 200-250 sec exposure using Westcott Strobelite 150WS Lightings with soft box placed on top of the product.
Delight in!
