Branding Photography for Amara Spa in Pacific Grove California
Nick and Jen of Amara by the Seas Boutique Spa reached out to me via the Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce member directory about a commercial photography shoot for making branding and marketing photos of all of their many spa services, the products they have for sale, and the amenities in the spa like the two sauna for couples. I always highly recommend that businesses use photos showing their actual location, actual team members, and how their services actually look on their website and in their social media and marketing materials. I call this the “better than stock photography” impact. Nothing adds authenticity to your brand than real photos of your location and services.
Making product photography shots of wine bottles in Pacific Grove
Jeff of Tamayo Wines brought several bottles of wine to my photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California to have professional product photos made for use on his website. I used a light cone with two continues lights and shot on a reflective black acrylic base, even though the client wanted the photos edited and delivered on just a transparent background. These kinds of product shoots are always a fun challenge to aim for as much consistency as possible between bottle shots, allowing for variation in bottle size and glass color. Thank you Jeff for choosing me as your product photographer!
Updated design gets updated product photos for cola bottles in Pasadena
Back in 2023 I photographed the first cola product this client brought to market. Since then, he has changed the name and of course had new labels made. So it should be pretty simple to repeat the results of the first shoot, right? Well, one and a half years ago I lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico and now I live in Pacific Grove, California. The client has always lived in the LA area, but the cola was bottled in a small town outside of ABQ. So I was still able to make new products shots for this client by driving down to LA, looking at my BTS reference photo from the first shoot, and replicating the same shots I made for him before. Thank you Chuck for continuing to choose me as your product photographer!
