add pizzaze, a touch of class
with this bad economy, I am finding it hard to justify buying the high end photographic muslims needed to do my clients product displays, so I have been using blankets
cotton, wools, fleece and flannel.
they add texture, movement, gloss...
its simple to set up too
I recreated some to show you

Step 1first, set up your display
for a sample I am using books
I set up my lighting and pulled the dark blue cotton blanket over a table
I placed the books down
and snapped them from above
-
Step 2to create a more dramatic, sweeping look
photograph your object on the floor
pull a chair over and drape the blanket over the chair and pull it a bit over the floor
place your product down and shoot it
don't be afraid to mess the blankets up a bit, create little folds for a sculpting effect
[i used a flannel blanket to create this look]
-
Step 3the super shadow look
photograph from above, pull the blanket as tight as you can,
angle one light directly onto the object to create shadow
