I take studio shots of products for advertisements, brochures, books or magazines. I work directly for product manufacturers, promotions and / or for the designers and advertising agencies who are creating promotional material. I do set up the product on a suitable background and use different lighting techniques to get specific creative effects. When agency or management want to achieve a certain effect they might ask a creative director or designers to work with me (photographer) and provide direction. Following the shoot, I (photographer) may decide to use digital editing techniques to enhance the image or achieve a specific result.
