Product Shots test 3

The following two pictures are some of the test shots I've done this week. I got some feedback from Sinead my lecturer and she said gave some pointers in how to make the images better so I set out trying to do that! With the first one, she said to try to have it not in the centre for better composition. I usually do this anyways but there are marks on the wall so I couldn't go too far if I had a proper set-up with a background I would definitely have better. composition. The product isn't in the centre though but I would prefer it a bit more to the right. Overall though I am happy with the image. Sinead also suggested trying light the right side better as it was slightly darker than the right side. I did that by getting another lamp to light the right side of the image.
 This was my set-up for the image above.

This is my second image and Sinead suggested to try light the cap more as it was completely dark. This was hard as I tried making a spotlight or even just shining the lamp on it from different angles. This is the best I could get with what I had, I was using 3 lamps. It was definitely better than the last I think. I tried to use the rule of thirds and different compositions in order to make it better but it didn't look great with this image as the light was off centre and didn't look the best. So I stuck with my gut and kept it in the middle. I think it turned out good and I'm happy with it.
This was my set up for the image above. I had my sister hold the 3rd light but forgot to take a picture of her holding it. But it was above the product to the left, slightly in front of it.

First Image: Image is from here . I picked this image as when I was looking up images to pick this caught my attention straight away! Personally, this image makes me want to go to the fridge and grab a can of coke. It just looks so desirable. This is why I picked the image as it is really a good example of product photography. It makes the consumer want to actually go and buy the item. I think it is the ice and the droplets on the can that make people crave it, they know by looking at it that it's ice-cold and that is the best way to drink one. I think the black background works really well with this image, it's so simple but really delivers the message. The lighting works very well too, the left-hand side of the can is more lit than the right. You can't see any reflection of the camera in the can too which is good. Second Image:  Image is from here . I picked this image as again it really appealed to me. It was the second one to catch my attention an...

This is the first picture I am adding as I really like how it turned out.  My ISO was set at 100, my aperture was set at f/4.5 and my shutter speed was set at 1/60. I had Manual flash on with 1/16. I really like the shadow behind Lauren as I think it really adds to the image. This was taken with the lights off and mostly the flash just lighting the image. Laurens t-shirt was reflective so I decided to use that. My ISO was set at 100, my aperture was set at f/4.8 and my shutter speed was set at 1/50. I put the flash compensation down to -3.0 I had full flash turned on, with TTL flash. I really like how the reflective writing came out but also how Lauren is looking down. It adds some emotion to the image. This was taken with the lights off and mostly the flash just lighting the image. My ISO was set at 100, my aperture was set at f/5.6 and my shutter speed was set at 1/100. This image was taken with the lights on, the other side of the room. There is a little b...
