My assistant Breanne and I were experimenting with different setups for shooting wine bottles on a set earlier this week. We wanted to get great looking shots without having to do a lot of compositing and retouching work in Photoshop.

This is one of the shots from our work – we only needed two photos for this image. The main shot, plus a second shot to get the gold lettering on the caps to come to life. Only a few touch ups in post.

As with most of my work, I try to capture as much in-camera as possible, relying on post processing for minor tweaks and clean ups.

We had a bit of creative fun shooting the the harmony bottle.

Shooting on ice is always challenging – three shots, composited. One lighting the ice, one lighting the product, and one lighting both, then compositing all three to create the final version. Of course, the ice is always melting, so the set is constantly changing.
