Hi Guys!

For your class project, you have to photograph any 2 objects/ products of your choice, on a seamless white background in artificial white light. I request you to not use daylight, as that is not the purpose of this class. :)

Selecting Products- If you already own a business, and already have products that you want to photograph for sale, then you won't have much thinking to do while selecting your subjects. However, if you are working on this project for fun or practice, then I have a few recommendations for how you can select your subjects.

1. Select objects that are small in size- lipsticks, erasers, hair clips, almonds, cashews, skittles, etc for example. This way you won't need to setup a big backdrop. A simple letter size or A4 size paper should suffice to begin with.

2. Avoid glass if possible- Glass bottles, cups, glasses etc can be difficult to work as they capture reflections. Shooting glass requires a bit of advanced level photography, lighting and practice.

Be creative with your light source. If you don't happen to have lights that are discussed in this class, then try to think of any other light sources that might be lying around in your house that can help you achieve a similar result. A desk lamp maybe? Phone Lights? Light from your laptop maybe? Get creative. Remember, photography is first and foremost an art. :)

Do get in touch if you have any queries regarding this class or have any doubts regarding the concepts and ideas shared in this class.

Can't wait to see what you guys capture!! :)

XOXO
