- Come with me to my new studio and practice product photography! It's a new venture and I'm both nervous and excited about it. Let me know in the comments if you want to see more of my studio!
GEAR AND EQUIPMENT USED:
Camera - Canon 5D Mark III
Lens - Canon 50mm f1.2
Flashes - Canon Speedlite 600 ex ii and Canon Speedlite 430 ex ii
Transmitter and Reciever system - Godox X1R-C Reciever and Godox X-Pro C 2.4GHZ Transmitter
Backdrop - Savage Universal seamless paper in Mocha. Purchased from Strobe Pro
White Blocks - Wooden boxes from the dollar store that I painted white. Don't recommend this as the texture is very obvious in photos and I had to edit it a lot.

Oh and subscribe please. heh.
For future vids it might be good to show some of the product pics as we go, talk about your thoughts about them, and then show us the small changes you made and your thought process.
Thanks for the feedback!
I absolutely agree. I love it when a photo of the outcome is attached on the video as the person takes the picture. Because if it's at the end I tend to start skipping the video just so I can get to the end to see how it came out and then i go to the next video.
Great point!

Damn, that hit hard 😅
Hahaha 🤣 unintentional inspiration, so glad
How the sun graced your shoot was so inspiring and the pictures were phenomenal! I’ve been meaning to go fully into product photography and this video came recommended. Looks like the universe is talking. Thanks for this video and showing the process leading up to the shoot.
Thank you for making this video. I am a baby entrepreneur and I'm pretty much doing EVERYTHING on my own (as most are). And I was researching different ideas for my product photoshoot and came across your video. This helped a lot and made me realize I need to start utilizing Pinterest for creative direction and to put some things together and just SHOOT. Thanks again!
Thank you for your incredibly kind comment! I'm so glad this helped you. Pinterest is definitely a great place to go for ideas. Yes, just shoot! It can be daunting but you never know what you can accomplish until you try. Good luck!
@DeaMcClay same here! I do everything in my livingroom but i am loving every part of this process and this video IS really helpfull indeed!
OMG The use of natural light in this video is mind-boggling. This is the best product photography video I have watched so far, go girl
Wow thank you so much!!
I absolutely loved this product styling idea x
3:57 Watching the sun come in with the timelapse like 😍😍😍
I always get bored of photographers' videos despite my love for photography, but I finally got a fun channel

I'm so excited for your studio tour and it'll be amazing if you make a video just about light setting in a studio🙏🙏🙏❤
Thank you so much! That's a good idea :)
That was a fun video, and a nice inspirational line towards the end too. Great photos I must say, loved them! Thanks for this video, God bless you! :)

Damn those photo's after you edited them, wow😍 I'm definitely subscribing👍🏽
Thank you so much! Means a lot
These are wonderful tips, I own a small laser engraving business so I will totally be implementing what I learned to take better pictures of my products 💕
That's awesome!! Thank you so much 🥰
Love it! Please share more of this kind of content! Keep moving forward 👌🏽
Thank you so much!!
These are beautiful oh my goodness👏👏
Thanks so much!
PLEASE MAKE A TUTORIAL TO EDIT LIKE THATTT
Check out my latest video :)
I love how creatively you worked with light and shadow and I love the end photos. Very inspirational.
Aw thank you so much!! ❤️
oh wow i love this video so much! Your intro is the best i've seen yet!
Thank you so much!!
I vote studio tour! Obviously bias... haha. These product shots are soooo good!!!!!!
Haha done!! Studio tour will be in the queue 🤣 and thank you friend!!
these were so pretty!!
Thank you so much!
Hi! Great video, I really like your atmosphere, it's very energizing. Tell us more about your editing, what kind of light you have, very interesting
Thank you! Check out my other videos to find out more about that 😃
That slight move with the sound effect at 3:50 had me howling haha
Haha thank you for noticing
Thank you for this video, I will be starting a business soon and that is exactly the 'vibe' I'm going for, looks High quality and professional. It would be great to see how you edit these pics.
Thank you so much! I'm still learning how to do product photography, so that means a lot. I'll be doing an editing video soon!
This video was so helpful! Thank you for sharing. I'm a very beginner product photographer and watching you setup and navigate the process of your product shoot was super informative for me. I found your shot list especially helpful! Would you mind sharing what you include in a shot list for a product shoot?
Thank you for watching and for the kind words! Great question. I include my inspo shots/mood board and then break down what each shot consists of, so I write down notes about the lighting set up, what the backdrop is, and what props are needed. This helps me get organized so I have a solid game plan going into the shoot and also, to know what I need to source/gather for each shot!
Killed it! Those shots came out great!
Thanks so much dude!! ☺️
That was really fun to watch! Nice bts, edit, and video quality!
Thank you so much!
Studio tour please! Definitely subscribed, you are awesome!!!
Thank you so much!! Too kind. Studio tour has been posted, check my latest video :)
Very nice results!! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching :)
Great video. I went to Arts store and buy white and colored Styrofoam blocks. They're cheap, lol. I find lighting is the hardest part to taking product photos.
Thank you! Oh that's so smart. I am going to go to an arts store to get some styrofoam blocks too haha
I planned to start a product photography business and this is really helpful. Thanks. Best of luck!
Thank you! That's awesome. Best of luck to you too!
i love your idea its actually so easy and perfect
That's awesome to hear! Thank you for watching
So good!
Thank you!
Shots are looking great! The bumpy white blocks will be easy-peasy to fix.
Thank you! I definitely would recommend styrofoam styling blocks haha
@@AileenChoiPhoto I mean easy to fix on photoshop :)
this was a really great video! product photography is definitely a lot of fun and challenging especially when using strobes (currently learning how to use them myself). you definitely killed these!
Thank you!! Yes it's challenging in a good way :) Best of luck with your photos!
Seriously amazing
Thank you!
these photos are amazing
Yes to studio tour!!
I did one! :) Check it out!
oooh these turned out so nice
Thank you so much!
Helloooo :-) Loved this video. Please make more product photography videos.
Thank you! I will try when I have time :) I don't do a lot of product photography yet as I'm still learning but appreciate your interest!
WOAH, we sound so similar😂
I’m a wedding photography but I want to get into branding portraits!
These are beautiful! I’ve been seeing dreamy product photos like this and I’d love to try so others can also learn for their own business.
Thank you for watching!
So glad I found this video! I hope you're still active on your older videos, since I have a question which I hope you can answer. A year later, what set up do you still use and or recommend for beginners i.e. what lighting etc.?
I'm still using my same lighting and camera equipment, I only upgraded one of my camera bodies from a 5D Mark 4 to an R6, but I still have the mark 4. I would recommend using video lights to start off if you're intimidated by using a trigger/receiver lighting set up (like I use with my flashes), and then move on to trying that out. :) I know it can seem daunting in the beginning, trust me, I had to really push myself to try it out, but it's actually pretty straight forward! Spend time playing around with them and you'll get comfortable with it in no time.
Love that I found your channel, I’m looking into getting into product photography as I currently on shoot people - very informative and funny 😂
Aww thank you so much! So kind. :)
Thanks for sharing your whole process! Love the video will definitely watch more!
OMG I LOVE THESE! It's simple but definitely helped me in a creative sense in product photography. Specially I'm shooting a hair product right now and this just gave me an idea 💕👌
Aww thank you so much! So glad it helped you. Let me know if you have any questions! :)
@@AileenChoiPhoto i have a few haha, like how do you decide what props to use? and what lens did you use for the shoot?
@@andreadelapena962 I honestly don't have a ton of experience shooting products haha but I think it's always good to start minimal (of course, depending on what style you're going for). I try to think about how the props will relate to the product and what I am trying to convey/what feel I'm going for. For example: if the product is seasonal and I want to go for a summer vibe, I think about bolder colours and fun props. If i want to keep the overall look simple, I'd use props that aren't too distracting that will take away from the product.
As for lens, I used a Canon 50mm f1.2 lens. :)
I loved this! Thank you!!
Thanks for inspiring me to do my own Product Photography video😍💛
That's awesome, thanks for watching!
This was so helpful and also hilarious! Awesome authentic video!
Oh my gosh thank you so much!!! 💖
Subscribed and liked, now would like to see your tips and tricks for product shots..............keep it up.

Loved this video. Just subscribed. Photos always come out better than we give ourselves credit for. Well done!

Wow these are amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing your tips. The result is great!
Thanks so much!!

Thank you!! 💗
Heyyyyyy Aileen, good video! I changed one room of my house into a studio, which I use for videos. You inspired me to try product photogtaphy.
Thank you so much! That's awesome :) have fun and good luck!
This was so well put together :) Love the way you educate with this video
Thank you so much! 💕
You should make more such video so that we can learn too 🥰 Loved the video 💗
Thank you Fida! I'm very flattered you are learning from my videos, I aim to share these videos for fun and didn't plan on them being educational so I'm glad they are useful! Haha
Great video!
And please forgive me but I cant help myself: Storing vinyl records flat/horizontally can lead to warping. Vertical/upright is the way to go.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video ❤️
3:49 😅. I love it
Impressive Photos btw! Thanks for the motivating words at the end!
Thank you! Hope it helped encourage you :)
You had me at “hello” lol
Studio tour 🥳
Done! Coming soon :)

#fromindonesia
Wow thank you for the kind comment! I'm glad it was helpful. Wishing you the best!
Great work, thanx a lot
I love your photos
Thank you!
love to see some tips on shooting dainty jewellery
When I get more experience with it, I'll try to create some content surrounding that! Macro lens is a must though for dainty jewelry so you can get nice and up close, and I would say pedestals of some sort to create levels.
so exciting you got a studio congrats!
Thank you!

@@AileenChoiPhoto you welcome
Great video. I was looking for something like that so bad. Could you make a video of how you pop up the editing of those photos in lightroom? Merci!
Thank you for watching! Not sure what you mean by pop up the editing of the photos?
Loved watching this! I'm probably the only person who finds these types of videos therapeutic lol #photographyASMR
Haha that's awesome! Thanks so much 🙂
Well done! You're very inspiring, I learned a lot ! Thank you :)
That's awesome!! Thank you 😊
Very useful and thank you so much..
Thank you!
Hi Aileen! Tips for a coffee grounds pictures pls. And other accents. Thank you!
Hi Judene, I haven't taken photos of coffee grounds before but I think what I would do is have the coffee grounds in its bag/packaging, and scatter the grounds around the bag. You can have the grounds on a spoon as well to add another layer. It's hard to explain without showing you, so I would recommend looking up some inspiration on Pinterest!
@@AileenChoiPhoto Thanks for this tip!! I totally appreciate it. Stay safe Aileen!
You did a great job
Love this BTS. Do you mind sharing what color background that is you used?
Thank you! The backdrop is from the brand Savage Universal and the colour is Mocha.
Hey Aileen, Great video - I can't wait to binge more of your videos! I've just started playing around with product photography so I have limited equipment but I was wondering which kind of light created the shadow of the dried flowers in the amazing photo at 7:38. I only have soft boxes at this stage but it seems a lot of people use a speed light for product photography and if that is what created your shadow then I think that needs to be my next investment!? Thank you so much!
Hi Brooke, thanks for watching! At 7:38, I was using a speedlite and that is what created the shadow of the dried flowers. The speedlite had no softbox on it and was pointing directly at the scene, therefore, it created the harsh shadow.
You create amazing content
Thank you!
they turned out amazing! congrats!
Thank you!
Red light to hide pimple = Galaxy brain strats hehehehe. Really enjoyed this vid :)
Hahaha thanks man! ☺️
thank you!
