Watch Collections

These are not all my watches. It was a product photo session in collabration with Henry Collantes.
It was quite interesting how we figure out this setup. Henry originally wanted to take a shot similar to one he saw on Watchuseek. Essentially it looks very similar to the Seiko Orange Monster in this set. After numerous trial and error, we just couldn’t light the background and keep the bezel of the watch white. After some thoughts, I dig into my arsenal of photo tips and decided to try some light painting technique. Hold and behold, that created the effect that we were looking for with the limited equipments that we had.
Many thanks to Henry for spending hours with me on figuring this out. Not to mention Henry makes a great flash holder.
This first shot is a collection. Subsequent are the individual images.
The only post processing done was cropping. All shot were done in a Soft Light Box with a sheet of black acrylic.
Shot with Canon 5D MKII, Canon 24-70mm 2.8L, Canon 100mm 2.8 Macro, Canon 480 Speedlight, Surefire Digital 2 Ultra (Thanks Chad for making buy this!! Finally found some good use for it)
