Stainless steel, highly reflective, product photography - tips, tricks and advice
Published on Tue Mar 26, 2013 by David J Colbran
I was recently commissioned to take high quality product shots of a variety stainless steel valves on site in a factory. I used the combination of a large hand made light tent with an open front and white reflectors (simple foamcore boards) to control reflections and eliminate color cast from room and camera / myself. Outside the tent I used two light sources either side, one shot through a really large umbrella to difuse the light as much as possible and cut down major areas of flash reflection. The client was really pleased with the end result and has already booked me for additional work, including some detailed post-processing manipulation.
So if you have arrived here looking to find someone to help show your products in the best possible way, I'm the guy to help. I'm happy working on location, or can bring items back to my studio here and complete super fast. Just get in touch for a chat and a competitive photography quote.
