Product photography has a purpose which is to advertise products to a consumer who may potentially buy the product. Lots of product photography and the way I tried to replicate is onto a white background such as this sprite and the perfume which is on a black background. The reason photographers do this is so that there is nothing else that can distract the viewers eye line when looking at the picture. This places a lot of importance of using the correct lighting to create or remove shadows from the image and ensure that the photograph is sharp and focused on the product. These photographing situations require lots of lighting strategically placed in order to make the image look clear and vivid.
The product I had to photograph was my watch so used white card for the surface and then put a piece of white card behind standing up to make completely white surroundings for the light to bounce off. We used two powerful lights, one on level with the watch and another from above pointing at the watch at an angle. I shot the watch from different angles trying to best show off its features and through changing the ISO to a lower setting as it was a bright environment and the object was stationary did I get the best out of all of the images I took.
