Hey guy’s. For those of you who don’t know me, my name is Joshua Geiger (GeigerFoto) and I am a commercial product photographer from Atlanta. I also work with Alex in studio and during some of his live workshops. In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to photograph a bottle of Tom Ford Cologne that will be used for a fictitious ad. I actually created the original image for my portfolio and thought it would make a good tutorial, so I re-created the image over at Alex’s studio and recorded the process for you guy’s to watch.
Here’s the video of the entire shoot from start to finish. I wanted to try to re-create the original images as best as possible, so you’ll notice that about half way through the shoot, I re-arrange the lighting setup. This was mostly to give myself more room to maneuver around the set. I’m not used to those big heavy c-stands Alex uses now. We’ll go step-by-step from planning the shot to saving out the clean, final image. I’ll only be using 2 lights for this shot to illustrate the lack of a requirement for tons of high end lighting and modifiers. Here’s the video of the entire shoot from start to finish.
