- In this video, I take you behind the scenes of how I shot a recent product photography image I posted to my Instagram. It talks about the importance of managing reflections, how to adjust flash power to help your subject stand out more, and how I made a last-minute decision to change the entire lighting setup to a more "product" looking shot.

This video is soooo amazing! I love that you showed each step of the process. It really helps anyone that is trying to practice or learn about lighting reflective objects. Thank you!
Appreciate your step by step guide to how you went about lighting this. I've watched a lot of yt videos and so many skip over these details. As a relatively new photog to product photography I find these steps helpful in the learning process. Thank you!
Product photography on the next level 🔥
That was exactly how the process should be ! It was really nice to watch the work behind the shot.
Love the way you develop images ,, slow and steady. Thanks a ton
Judging from the dust on the camera, I have to subscribe. cause I know it's authentic and you know what you're doing
Great stuff! The last but one shot had a glare on the top curvature, and you fixed it brilliantly in the final shot. Impressive work buddy, thanks!
Dude... I like the way you do it. You simplify things and the results are just amazing. Thanks a lot man.
Hi from Algeria
Most videos: "I added a 3rd flash to get this image"
Your video: "I added a 3rd flash to get this image, and here is why I did it"
Super helpful video! Thank you!
You videos have really lit a fire under me, they are perfect combination of stunning results and and "Oh I could do that too" vibe, so thank you for that as well.
Wow, thank you Adam! and I'm glad you find them helpful!
What a great video! This is not a video... this is a lighting teaching manual! Super job! Thank you! And hey... I bought my light meter and it has arrived, and two main strobe lights are on the way. Thanks to your support, and great videos! ))) Wish you a great day! )))
Loved this breakdown. I am a huge fan of your clean style. Clean video and immaculate audio!
Appreciate that Juan! Thank you 👊
The final changes made it soooooo much better!
I know right?! I thought it would look too "product-y" but I was surprised to how well it came out. Thanks for watching Abhyanshu!
AWESOME. ,,,LOVE your channels. The flow of the video is easy to understand. You explain the techniques clearly, straight to the point and with the slow pace, made a Non-English speaking audience like me can easily to follow the content. THANK YOU
Thank you for watching! And I'm glad my videos are helpful!
Wow, I just discovered your channel tonight and I am in awe! Just getting into flash photography and I already learned a lot. Keep up the amazing work! :)
Thank you Murielle! I'm glad the videos are helpful 🙏
Thank you, Thank you so much for a clear, concise video on another use of continuous lighting with additional lights and/or additional backdrops and emphasizing taking an image to see what that additional light (or backdrop) did to your image. I learned a lot and anxious to try these techniques as I learned to control each light source added,
Great tutorial. The spot highlights that the third light introduced were bugging me a lot. Glad you sorted that out with the tweaks at the end, final result looks amazing.
This is real work
This was brilliant i love the step by step
ALL of the images you yielded are stunning! The final image is my favorite too, though, so clean and well executed!! This was so thorough yet straightforward; you teach so well! I definitely want to give this technique a try soon. Thank you!
PS: I am so so excited for your course "thing!" I volunteer as tribute! 🙋🏻♀️
Thank you Leena! I really appreciate that 🙏 That final change took my by surprise for sure haha.
This is great! Super informative and fun to watch. Definitely subscribing! Cheers
i was trying to photograph a white soda can, and ended up with an unsatisfying result due to my lack of experience, i cant begin to thank you enough for sharing your skills with us, thank you so much
It is tricky and can be frustrating, but those gems are there and once you get it, it's quite rewarding. Keep going! Thank you for watching Edgar! I'm glad my videos can offer some help
Good refresher course. I might get a can, bottle, or other small products to practice with as a hobby. Thanks for the class.
Amazing and really helpful tutorial

Thank you, this is very helpful!
Thanks for watching Milos! I'm glad it helped!
Excellent. Thank you for sharing.
Great work my friend
very cool!!
Very easy to understand thanxs alot dude..✌
You can also cross polarize the light source / lens to eliminate the specular highlight. Or use a print of a gradient, place it like a bounce and let the can reflect the printed gradient.
Absolutely! And I never thought of using a gradient print, interesting!
sooo goooood thank You !!
Subscribed !
Thank you 🙌🏼
Appreciate your video bro ❤️❤️❤️
Amazing
So good video for me and thanks.
Thanks for the info! I noticed that you sometimes use Profoto and sometimes Godox. Is there a huge difference? If you may make a video comparing the two it would be awesome 👏🏻
Great Video!!! Got my sub!!
Lovely 😊 thank u 🙏🏻
This is therapeutic
He desrves more subscribers !!
Yay I got a ❤️ from Brandon !
Thank you Sayeed!
Hey Brandon, love your channel! Could you post a link to the brand of studio clamps you use? They seem have a grip on them which double as a stand for fill cards, etc. Thankyou!
I just watched a guy giving me a bunch of tips and tricks that led to a result he didn‘t like that much. Then he showed a timelaps with no comment on how to get a good looking image. 😂 priceless
Thank you so much bro
Wow. Great work.
Next time you need to remove and reposition the can…may be small markings on the “rear of the can” aligned corresponding with markings on the plexiglass will help?
fantastic video congratulations
Such a great tutorial ! Thanks for sharing this video =) do you know any kind of diy solutions for a cheaper lighting ?
Nice job.. Thanks
Cool video
Very nice video and informative. Just had one doubt can't we use smaller apperatiure and may be a little lower shutter speed. What is your view on this. Wanted your opinion.
Cool video as always man! Can you do a video about how you color grade your videos?
Thank you! I intend this channel to be more about photography tutorials based on lighting principles and practices, so I don't think right now I can fit that in here. Thanks again for watching though! I do post some behind the scenes stuff on my Patreon and can plan to have a video that explains my color grading process on there. There is a monthly fee, but you'll have access to that video and more...would that be something you'd be interested in? If not, I'll respect your decision.

Thanks again for watching!
Very useful
That's good to know! Thank you!
Great video; I just found your channel. During your test after setting up the first light, the background looked completely dark, even though you had a window with white blinds behind it. Why doesn’t that show up in the background? Sorry if that’s a dumb question.
Hey can you give a link for that white diffusion? I’ve been looking for this for sooo long for my product shots. PLEASE.
EDIT:
Nvm you’re a legend and already did it
Thank you for this tutorial. What is the dimenstion of your surface/table top?
hey man, could you make a video talking about your magbeam kit? i tried to get those streaks of light on my background using a grid on my flash, but it didnt work. is that only achievable with the magbeam?
i liked the one on the left better. what does that say about my phot eye? i like high contrast? hummmm id better keep that in mind. great vid thanks.
Hi Brandon! I LOVE your photography style. I was wondering if you could give us some tips on photographing with artificial light but without flash. I have a couple of softboxes but I can't seem to get the result I really want and I'm not sure if it is actually possible and I'll have to invest money on strobes and flash. Thank you!
Are you talking about continuous light? If so, it's totally possible. I have a video on my channel that shows you how you can use one, but I'll definitely write down more ideas for future videos. Thanks for the suggestion Isa! And thank you for the compliment, I appreciate that!
Hello. I watch your lectures with great admiration. Would using a white or black background instead of the yellow background in this video affect the reflection. I only have them.
Thank you! Swapping the background out shouldn't affect the reflection or even ambient lighting, as long as the backdrop is a decent distance away from the set.
What’s the wattage on that Profoto main light? Cuz I’m liking this setup. One big main light and speed flashes.
this makes me miss art direction so much
Very nicely done, but why didn't you push the plexiplate further back to prevent the dark edge? Would be much easier for post.
which type backdrop are you use it
Thanks for share video. What kind A type table leg do you use? Can you provide a link？
What speedlight attachment is that for the rear light?
Is the canon 750d suitable for the purpose
how would the SL60W perform in this situation. Considering investing in lights for a home studio on a tight budget, I need to invest in the right gear. Thanks
Just went and tested this theory for you with one of my SL60Ws. Using a 12x36 softbox firing through a 32x48 scrim with the light at 100% my settings were F/4, 1/100 @ ISO400 to get a proper and pleasing exposure. If more DOF is required you either will need to lower the SS or bump up ISO. Personally I would look to the 100W version if budget permits. Your softbox size will also play a role in light output so keep that in mind when choosing. Cheers.
Thank you! +++++++++++++++++++++
Thanks for watching Rodion! 🙏
Your videos are wonderful, but isn't an RGB light would do the job for the background?
Hi can u tell all the gear u have in your studio please love your video
Thanks Garv! haha maybe someday when the room is cleaner 😬
@@figandlight OK we will wait
What should I do when taking pictures like this but in the sun? My product requires outside (seaside) photos often in the sun and I cant find solution for this. Any tips?
Have some kind of diffuser ready to use.
Brandon, do you think we can do that with continuous lights ? Thks
Definitely can! I did show a video recently on how you can do that.
hello friend ,
i can't find your rosco diffusion sheet .
another site maybe ?
What brand of C stands do you use?!
I use c-stands from Avenger
What flashes are those
Could this be achieved with one light and compositing the different set ups?
i think it could
@@figandlight Will try, can't wait to get a second light honestly
Would you make composite videos or is that not your territory?
how would u do to shoot a redbull can? its round and almost a mirror surface? tryd it but failed badly 🤣
I would assume a similar setup to what I showed in this video, but I'm probably speaking too soon. I should try it myself 😬
Make your life easy
On your tv find the Gradient background and put one light in the front you will get much better results and very fast
Been seeing a lot of that lately on RUclips. I'm sure it works wonders and will definitely give it a try.
Did you go to photography school?
Who would dislike tNice tutorials video..
You never explained how you got rid go the specular highlight on the front of the can. When you changed the lighting it was all of a sudden gone.... we don't even know your final lighting set up....
the last part where you fine tuned the lighting went too fast
You should extend the tripod’s legs and not use the center column (defeats the very purpose of the tripod...).
You're absolutely right! I'll keep that in mind next time. Thank you!
Sorry but this is boring to me. It’s just simple photography like one learns is beginning photo.
