Volupte'

So today i had to my perfume product shot for assessment. I wasn't too up for it nor prepared for it but none the less i thogught id do a mock up and if it turns out well i will use it for assessment, if not then i'll reshoot another bottle with a different feeling and mood. This is volupte' by Oscar de la renta. It is an old woman's perfume, Old money very old. haha so the feeling was a bit old, afternoon maybe evening light. The shot was done using a white perspex base and background wall and 3 lights. The first light placed above the bottle giving a top light with a beauty dish. No flash only used the modelling light for it. The other 2 lights were placed next to each other both with honey combs, one of them with barndoors to cut out the light on the back wall to make it a bit darker. They both were shining through 2 glass bricks covered in orange gels to create warmth and mood. Pools of white, dark and orange light spilt through the bottle. Also behind the bottle is a piece of flat aluminium foil to reflect some light back into the bottle of perfume to add dimension. It was shot using a tripod. the only thing stak suggested was the foil trick but other than that the rest of the shoot was completely created with my own mucking around techniques which i'm pretty proud about.
