Itās Dirty Work, But Someone Has To Do It
Recently a new startup company in the pet goods space reached out to me with a project. They had just launched a line of Dog Potty Pads and they were looking for some e-commerce and lifestyle images. The client's request was simple. They needed their packaging and the product shot from a few different angles and put on a white background for e-commerce use. They then wanted two lifestyle photos of the product in use. Keep reading to see the photos!
The Process
The process for this shoot was pretty simple. We started with a client phone call where we discussed client needs and timeline. We then created a shot list over the phone so that we could all be on the same page. A few days later we met up and I received the products from the client. I was able to work independently from the client on this shoot. I communicated throughout the process with the client so that we were all on the same page. Once the products were photographed, I sent a web preview gallery to the client. Once images were approved they were retouched and the final files were delivered. Upon image delivery, I returned the products to the client.
The Images
For this client, we kept the images simple. We wanted to show off the box with as few angles as possible, but yet enough to tell the story of the product. The brand has a really fun and quirky image. The bright colors of the products really help them to stand out in the market place. The boxes were delivered in pretty bad shape. When the boxes arrived at customs coming into the US they ripped the boxes apart. Through the magic of retouching, I was able to rebuild the boxes.
