Rolex Watch Professional Product Photography in Albuquerque for Crown Jewelry

November 10, 2021 in Commercial

Getting creative photographing Rolex watches!

It was great working with new client Crown Jewels and Coin here at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico, making a series of photos of Rolex watches that will be featured in their new television commercial! Using a reflective acrylic product background for these shots, and my Sony 90mm f/2.8 macro lens, we put the watches in various positions and I even suggested having a hand model type shot. This was easily my most valuable product photography shoot to date!

Cosmos then and now

Cosmos photos across 13 years of photography history

The first time I photographed cosmos flowers 13 years ago, I was just learning how to become a more serious photographer. That meant I could still be stunned by the amount of bokeh created in these cosmos flowers I made in Tachikawa, Japan. Now many tens of thousands of photos later, I am no longer stunned by creating very shallow DoF in a photo, but I do still appreciate the magic of it. These cosmos were photographed in the ABQ Biopark while bees were busy collecting pollen on a warm fall afternoon. In 13 years will we still be using what we traditionally think of as a interchangeable lens camera to make such photos?

Looking to impress on his med school application, Hesham visited the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico in a sharp blue suit with a perfectly tied tie. We shot on a clean white background which is my default suggestion when a client is looking for a modern headshot. Hesham was great in front of the camera, so it took up very little of his time in his busy schedule, and the edited headshots were delivered less than two hours after our headshot shoot! Thank you Hesham for choosing me as your headshot photographer and good luck on your med school application!

Going super vivid with a yellow background for headshots in ABQ

Long-time networking friend Paul has been referring several people to me for headshots, which I really appreciate! That is how Amelia came to visit the JCP Home Studio for her headshot session. After adjusting the lighting to make sure there was no glare in her glasses, we tried out several background colors before ending with an exciting vibrant yellow which was my favorite of the shoot. As expected, the more clients see the new vivid color backgrounds I now offer, the more they are choosing them for their own headshots! Thank you Paul for another referral and to Amelia being so great in front of the camera working with me to get the best results for no glare.
