Sorry for the false alarm! Uploaded the wrong video first LOL whoops! PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY is one of my favourite things to do and how I first started earning from this passion! Who's headed to an antique shop?!?

i didnt understand it at first, until i got a macro lens which makes all the difference. Also changing your WB for the same kelvin as your lights helps in post

13 minutes into video: "I think this video has been like 45 minutes long." If only. This was great. Would love to see more like this in the future. Very informative/entertaining!

[@michaelbrogan6412]

Great video, Just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. 40 years ago I was a teen and I loved photography. Unfortunately I had my Zenit E 35mm camera stolen while I was at school. My parents could not afford to replace it and that ended my romance with the camera until I saw a video you produced early last year. I am 56 now and in April I will begin a new chapter in my life. I will make a start on my diploma in photography. I have to do it on a casual basis with family and work commitments but I am doing this for me and I just wanted to thank you and Matti. I wish you and you beautiful family all the best.

[@Klesx]

michael brogan I wish you all the best. Ignore your age and be awesome!

[@ne_nravitsa]

Your story touch my heart. Wish you huge luck man! p.s. I start in photo with Zenit E too, awesome camera from USSR love it so much

[@Standupnow56]

Good luck Michael! I used to own a Zenit too!

[@FocusedwithGK]

I've been a pro photographer for 23 years self employed. Are you shooting now with film or digital? Your story is inspiring all by itself. I was 23 when I started and now being 46 I still have the passion and the energy to work and mentor. Please hit me up with any questions about photography or the business aspect. Stay Focused! -GK

[@JyrkiS]

Great video, I hope you can do "part 2" where you go even deeper, with lighting, camera settings etc. I have to add that I really enjoy these kind of product photos, in my dayjob I take product photos and so often they just want product on white background, evenly lit. So I end up taking photos with props too but those rarely are used by our company. BUT I do maintain our social media, so I shamelessly post them there, without even asking. ;)

[@oscarwright1925]

what company do u work for?

[@bennyadvent]

Going in deep would be great. One could ask their boss to take pics without sharing them for a week and see how that goes ;)

[@mayankjaitley2687]

Still waiting for a part 2

[@Opticalwander]

Absoulty amazing work as always. Product photography has always been something that grabs my attention and I cannot wait to start approaching companies in the future 😁

[@MauricioThomsen]

So glad to see that even you - The Peter McKinnon - created some photos for free to the James Coffee Co. brand that you like until they noticed you so you could create a relationship with the client to be able to start being commissioned. So CHILL guys, you're not going to make it - as influencers, filmmakers, KZbinrs, photographers, travel bloggers - overnight. Work. Harder. And then eventually you will make it. So chill then work then will.

[@ElijahAnthonyF]

Bro, 2 years ago before I started filmmaking, me and my brother watched your Ellusionist videos! WHY AM I JUST NOW REALIZING THIS :)

Very helpful Peter! I would be interested in seeing what needs to be done to the pic in post.

[@dimitrijevasiljevic]

Exactly. This topic is perfect for a two part tutorial. I think post is also a huge deal with product photography, colors can effect a person's feelings and therefore influence them around a product.

Maaaaaaaaaaan look!! this video was uploaded at the right moment, the right day, just got hired to do a couple of product photography shots and this has HELPED ME A LOT! Thank you Peter. THANK YOU!

[@Mrdopestar173]

Marcos Pérez how do u edit your photos after you take the pictures? I would love to see your photos straight from your camera and then how they look after editing... the reason i am asking is because when i take pictures from my Canon 70D w/ ef 35mm IS USM lens, it looks regular.... i have yet to understand the settings... please if u can send me your email address or anything to contact you.

[@marcosperez2071]

Are you asking me or Peter? o.O

[@Mrdopestar173]

Marcos Pérez in this comment i am asking you lol, because you said you got hired recently to do product photography... i would like to know how your pictures come off straight from camera without editing and also after you edit them. I suck at taking pictures and mines just look Blah...

[@marcosperez2071]

Oh got it, is just that... I am practically nobody xD that's why I got confused but yeah I can send you some before and after of my product photography although I gotta say, Portraits are my actual thing!

[@Mrdopestar173]

Marcos Pérez anything will help. I just really need to see the possibilities on how photos turn from regular to amazing photos after editing or so.... You are somebody :-D you just haven’t gotten the chance to actually show the world your talent... I picked up my first Canon camera 2 years ago and i still havent really started doing what i want to do with it because i am highly confused about how Peters and every other KZbinr get such great looking photos and mines are a pain to look at hahahaha...

Made me realize how much I need a Marco lens!

[@Jigsaw407]

You don't. At least not for images like this. ;)

[@Rickard_Hagman]

Jigsaw407 any clue what lens he uses?

[@Jigsaw407]

With objects that big you can do products shots like that with a fairly long telephoto lens. Somewhere between 70-200mm should do. The camera would be pretty far away from the subject, so the minimum focusing distance of the lens shouldn't be a problem. Your results may vary... just try around a bit until you are happy with the way it looks. ;)
