Commercial Photography : Iki Studio

These gorgeous minimalist watches designed by Iki Studio came to our office two weeks ago for some catalogue photos.

Photography was straight forward. I place the products inside the light tent to create nice even lighting from all directions. The challenge is to portray the stainless steel face accurately (the one on the left). It is very reflective and the light that bounces off made it look completely white. 

With some clever positioning of the lights and some tweaking of the curves in photoshop, It looks like stainless steel now. 

If you have similar products that needed photos done, please send an email to ted@teddytan.com.au .

Commercial Photography: Boldr Watch

Several weeks ago, I had the pleasure to create some photos for an exciting product. I cannot reveal them until now, for confidentiality reasons.

Introducing Boldr, a hybrid watch combining classic design and clever wizardry. On the outside, it is a classic aviator style look. But what's amazing is the smartmodule that's lurking underneath. It has built-in calls, messages and apps notification. Also, it is a pedometer, phone camera shutter release and it has anti-loss function. On top of that, the battery can last way longer than the typical smart watch! I am getting one myself, for sure. 

Shooting was fun, but challenging. The reflection on the glass surface is a headache but we’ve managed to overcome it. Once the lighting was nailed down, the rest was a breeze. If you would like to showcase your products with photographs like the ones above, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Kickstarter launch 29/8/2015.
