Chair and Tables

In this shot we went for a more dramatic lighting approach to add interest in the shadows to highlight the form and pattern of the details on the chair. The composition allows the form of the table to be displayed and a graduated background to give extra interest and depth. The key light has a honeycomb grid over it to diffuse the light. The colour balance is off it is too brown and the front of the chairs could use some more light to accentuate the gold colour of the set.


Chair

In this image we used strong directional lighting to capture the texture on the material on the chair. We then used a second light to graduate the background to give the image more depth. The front on composition accentuates the main feature off chair, being the material and the gap. It is a fairly simple shot which could be used for deep etching catalogue purposes.

Couch


For this piece we used a large soft box as the key light. This was positioned above the coach to highlight the top of the coach and allow some shadows on the front to give it a three dimensional appearance. We used a second light to spotlight the background and give it a graduated appearance. We then used a green gel to give the overall image some more interest and to allow greater contrast between the chair and the background and to really make it pop.

Creative (or just for laughs)
