There are so many trade secrets in photography, but when I moved into food and drink, I found it almost impossible to get any real info on how to do anything of use.
A product shot on a clean, white background with no distractions is a look that will always be in demand, though it presents some challenges to the photographer creating the image.

There is a lot more room to be creative in product photography than you might initially think, and part of creating compelling imagery is knowing how to add your own stylistic touches in a way that complements the product’s purpose.

I do quite a bit of fashion and beauty work, so why not products that go with those?
