These are my final 10 images for my Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter Product Unedited.
In total - 2 for Autumn, 3 for Winter, 3 for Summer and 2 for Spring.
Again I wanted to go through my pictures before being edited to why I like them and pick them for my final portfolio.
Going from left to right, Top row first.....
Autumn 1 - This is one of my favorite product shots out of my final images.... And this was actually one of the first images I took being in the studio. I used my leaves as a prop to make the season and used the wooden boards from out of the studio as a base. I love the dark woody feel to the picture and have a real feel of Autumn looking at this image. 5.6 F Stop - 2 Shutter Speed - ISO- 100
Autumn 2 - This shot is similar to picture 1, however I loved the angle on this picture and will be edited in a different way to make it look more individual. 5.6 F Stop - 2 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Winter 1 - These are Christmas Party Shoes.... I was unsure how to take pictures of shoes and did find it a little difficult with the straps and was hard to get them at angle where they looked good.... But after a lot of persistence I think I manage to get a decent shot which follows with my theme.... 5.6 F Stop - 1/13 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Summer 1 - I did a lot of research in to how to take pictures of sunglasses and even though sunglasses go with my theme, I did use the sun umbrella in the back ground to provide a little colour.... I did take a number of shots of various glasses but this one is my favourite and am aware that it is over exposed but really do like how it looks and could be advertising the Sunglasses in any magazine. 5.0 F Stop - 1/6 Shutter Speed - ISO- 100
I loved Leo Acker's work - it was so colourful, different and young and I feel that that is the direction that I would like my work to go... So I tried to recreate Acker's picture of the sunglasses- obviously I don't have as many pairs as he does so I designed my own but with the same kind of theme and I feel with the use of light and exposure on this picture I have created something similar to what he has done.... Post photoshop I hope this will look even better.....
Summer 2 - This shot is of a pink flower ring... I did enjoy taking pictures of the jewellery and did find it the easiest out of all the product shots. I like the depth of field in the frame and think it shows the product well.... 5.6 F Stop - 1/80 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Summer 3 - This is one of my favorite pictures in the product theme and used a patterned wallpaper as a base and some flowers just slightly in the background. The beads are colorful and fit with the bright season. I wanted to have the beads in focus and background blurred which I have achieved.... 6.3 F Stop - 1/25 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
I did try to create this image in a similar way to one of Edward Edwards photographs above. Edwards was one of the photographers I researched and felt I could try and imitate to a certain degree.... Obviously my jewellery is no where near in the same league as the expensive jewellery in his photograph. However by using a patterned based and some flowers just fluttering in the back ground I feel it has given as similar feel of nature as Edwards frame. I enjoy his photography and even though not exact, I did enjoy bearing his work in mind while in the studio.
Winter 3 - I did struggle with the glass a little as was quite reflective and haven't taken pictures of glass before but I like the composition of this picture and feel with a little editing will make this picture come out a lot more.... I used Xmas star decorations as my prop just slightly in the background. 7.1 F Stop - 1/100 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Winter 2 - This is a picture of a Chanel scarf.... This picture will change dramatically after editing as I am not pleased with it how it is now but have an idea in my head how to make it look like it would be in a fashion magazine! 5.6 F Stop - 1/100 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Spring 1 - I used another wallpaper pattern for my base and laid the necklace out - I love the depth of field on this as well as the main effect i.e the butterfly is in focus and the chain blurs out the further you go along... 7.1 F Stop - 1/100 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Spring 2 - Again depth of field and focus I like on this shot. I will probably edit this picture a lot different to how it is at the moment - I also like the tint of pink the back ground has which has come off the base wallpaper used and the contrast from the colour of the earrings. 8.0 F Stop - 1/100 Shutter Speed - ISO - 100
Overall I am happy with my final images and look forward to seeing them post photoshop where I feel the pictures will come together and fit my theme quite well.... This theme was a little harder for me than portrait but feel I also I have learnt a lot more from it which is what I am here for!
