I'd been toying with the idea of buying a used studio photography background kit with a set of soft boxes so I could step up my portrait photography lighting skills. However, on this day, no one seemed to be selling, but just as I was going to log out, an object caught my eye. It was a portable kit for product photography. Wow! It was in my shopping basket in a jiffy, & I couldn't wait to have it delivered already.
During the week-long wait, I researched all I could on product photography. I knew I'd just found me a new "baby".
This type of photography wasn't so popular back in Nigeria, and that's quite understandable because we did most of our shopping on our feet.
In this part of the world where lots of buying and selling take place online, it's easy to guess just how important a role product photography plays in the retail business.
As it turned out, I didn't have to wait out the whole week, thank God! On the 4th day, my delivery came through, and immmediately I was on my knees setting it up. That took a little over 3minutes and in another minute, I'd whipped up my camera and tripod, and set them up for action.
Putting to use all I'd learnt about lighting and composition, I ended up with some interesting shots of everything that was in sight at the moment.
Here are some of the interesting shots;
You can be sure I'll be taking this one all the way in my characteristic manner, and you can bet I'm looking forward to my next product photography project.
Another person's revelation complements your vision. That is why man is not made to live alone on an island, man is made for community. I want to order a similar kit bro!
