Barrettes

SimpsonBrothers

Got a contract to photograph about 1000 of these over the course of a few years as they are made.

What do you think?

Lots of space for customer preferred crop.

I'm probably the last one on this forum qualified to comment on this type of photography.....commercial product display. But I find the white background insufficient to properly highlight the product. I realize that there will probably be many varied colors of barrettes, some of which will show up better than these on a light background. I also realize that there may be requirements from a printer that mandates such a background, or that economics dictate using white. Given a choice, though, I would go with some other background. The metal parts of the product would also benefit from a better showcasing.

Congratulations on getting the contract. Your work has long been worthy of such.

I think you're going to get really sick of barrettes.

Seriously, the shots look fine and congrats on the gig.

So would I, but the customer requested plain white, even after I suggested many other options. (one of those being having a Lego Storm Trooper hold them! )

I hear that. But hang in there. They do look good and congrats.
