Lighting Wine Bottles – Two techniques I use.
The first three bottles below are fairly evenly lit using three lights on each side of a light box. I used Perspex inside the light box to stand the bottles on and a reflector propped up at the front of the box below the camera lens to reflect light back onto the bottle label.
The three bottles below were lit using a black backdrop and a light with a soft box positioned behind the bottle ( this is the block of lighter colour you can see in the glass), one light at a 45 degree angle at about about 4’0’clock from the bottle up higher about head height. I also used a reflector to the left in front of the bottle to throw some light onto the label. As you can see the shapes of the reflection in the glass are quite different and give a very different feel.
I was delighted to take pictures of these wonderful wagons. They look great, it reminds me of when we were children and my dad used to allow us to jump in the back of the trailer sometimes as he drove us round a camp site so simple yet as a child so much fun.
