Cosmetic products benefit from clever lighting techniques and creative thinking, something a good still life photographer has in abundance. A strong collaborative approach to the art direction, with a few Pinterest boards and a strong concept, resulted in a set of creative still life photography suitable for printing in the House of Fraser Beauty Guide.

Advertising & packshot photography

As a fan of gadgets and mobile accessories i was pleased when brand Olixar approached me for some creative product photography for their website and other promotional material. The request was for a set of bold, colourful and impactive advertising product photography. I wanted to show the quality of the products and give them a premium feel, and where appropriate, would also create "lifestyle" still life images showing the products in use.

Advertising Still Life Product Photography London

Getting the chance to create still life product photography from beginning of an idea all the way through to completion is a pleasure, especially when you can see the success and growth of a brand or company. It's great to be able to carry over the creative direction from the still life product photography to the packshot photography. For this shoot the colour pallet was bright and impactive and the theme was cymk. The bright colours and style was to remain the same for both the advertising and the packshot photography.

Advertising Drinks Product Photography

Some clients come to me with the exact idea of what they require, others ask me to create the whole concept from start to finish. The following product photography was definitely the former. The client had previous images from a photoshoot last year, my job was to replicate the packshots exactly, ensuring the images had space for text and the final Still Life packshot would follow the brief. I was provided with a template which i used as guideline when placing the product. Each packshot required space around the final images so it could be wrapped around the square packaging box.

Still life products & festive collections

Still Life product imagery that have been used over the festive period in magazines, gift guides and other publications.
