Still Life Photography
Still Life photography pose objects in very carefully crafted scenes to appear as though they are naturally doing some act at a certain place and time. The pose is to depict something about its “lifestyle.” When we add people to the mix, we are posing people in relation to the product to depict a certain type of lifestyle gain that they have received as a function of interacting with your product.
As an example of a lifestyle photo, think of just about any cell phone advertisement. Often, we see less product photos of the phones and more lifestyle photos showing the phone’s customer enraptured by something they are able to do by using the phone, often connecting or sharing with others. Obviously, it takes a really expert photographer to get these poses to look natural and to take the perfect photograph of the scene at the same time.
Still Life Photography – Probably familiar with still life in art—those paintings that depict a bowl of fruit or flowers in a vase. Those are classic examples of a still life photography. But even when you’re familiar with the concept, you might not know exactly what makes a still life a still life. In a nutshell, a still life is a work of art that focuses on inanimate subjects. Usually, the subjects are commonplace objects. That can include both manmade objects (such as vases, items of clothing, and consumer products) and natural objects (like plants, food, rocks, and shells).
The major advantage offered by still life is the freedom to arrange the objects any way you want. Still life photography follows the same philosophy. A lot of emphasis is put on the arrangement of the items, the lighting, and the framing. Contact Don Vos Photography for a FREE quotation.
