How to Take Indoor Product Photos!
Product photography can be created in a variety of locations. The photos below are shot indoor and outdoor with continuous lighting and reflectors.
Cilantro
This photo was taken with a large continuous light. I darkened the background and added some highlights to the main subject. I wanted this photo to look simple so that the product was noticeable.
Glasses
This photo was created by using three continuous lights behind some white diffusers. One light came from above and two were positioned on the side. I sharpened the image, added contrast and cleaned up the white background.
Camera
I took this photo from above while standing on a chair. I used one continuous light on the right side of the image. I wanted to create another perspective of my watch.
Apple
This is a an above shot taken while standing on a chair. I had one continuous light coming from the bottom left of the photo.
