Preparation for Perfume Bottle Photography

When it comes to creating a professional advertising image of a world famous product, pre-visualisation and planning are essential.

After much consideration, Karl is finally ready to start work on a project he’s been planning for some time. His aim is simple — to create a high end series of advertising images that do this beautifully classic Chanel No. 5 perfume justice.

In this product photography class he details the planning and preparation required for this series, focussing on a seemingly simple element — his background. Throughout this series of photography classes you’ll be able to watch, step-by-step, how Karl uses this background in different ways to achieve completely unique images.
