Creative Cosmetics - Still life & Lifestyle Photography

Cosmetic Product Photography

It’s a difficult time for most of us now that we have all been asked to stay indoors and adhere to social distancing. Our first thoughts and concerns go to any individuals and businesses adversely affected by the outbreak of Covid-19. Whilst some businesses are struggling others can adapt, with some new creative ways of communicating and remote working we continue to provide photography and creative content whilst keeping everybody safe and well.

Like most creative industries, Howlett Photography have felt a massive downturn in business as clients cancel or put jobs on pause whilst we all try to weather the storm. However, some online companies still require still life and product photography and with new processes, including live video feed and email confirmation, we’re still providing awesome product photography and creative still life.

The brief was to complete a series of creative cosmetic still life photography based on the ingredients (such as water melon) and also for mother's day promotion with flowers petals and other styling elements.

The final selection of images are taken from a series using the brand colours as the main background combined with liquid and oil splash spills and droplets. The shot below was a particuar favourite and was captured using high speed flash (and of course, a lot of patience!).
