How to Photograph High-End Products While Working to a Brief
Imagine photographing an item no bigger than a phone, but worth more than a Mercedes SUV… That’s exactly what I did in one of my recent product shoots!
In this video (where I photographed bars of silver, gold and platinum) I show you how to shoot high-end products and overcome the challenges of photographing small, shiny objects, all the while working closely to a brief provided by the client.
In addition to showing you my lighting setup, you’ll learn the process of working to a client brief as I discuss the project with the art director and show you the final results.

It would be cool if you put the option for subtitles in Portuguese on all videos.
Stellar work Karl.
I dont have a Flooter, However can I get similar results using my Pulso Spot using the Fresnel lens without the snoot? Thanks in advance.
Hi David, yes it’s just a slightly smaller fresnel but it give a nice look. In fact I have a video of them both compared coming soon.
Great video, I never fully understand why some people don’t like working to a brief. I want to do these kind of jobs where you are making a print add or billboard add or things of that nature. I think it is neat to take a concept and make it real.
absolutely, even if you create your own brief it gives you a clear focus and strategy and a greater chance of success with the image.
