The top management required a complete set of high-quality, professionally edited photographs showcasing their range of stainless steel and powder-coated industrial counters, shopping mall display counters, and kitchen sinks.
On 6 May 2018, we photographed approximately 12 products for Balaji Metal Crafts during a one-day assignment at its workshop in Andheri MIDC, Mumbai. The client required clean product photographs for online and offline marketing.
The workshop did not have enough space for a strobe-light setup. Reflections on the stainless steel were another challenge. I chose to photograph the products outdoors in shade, using the available space and natural light.
Some reflections from the surroundings remained visible in the photographs. These were addressed during editing.
The editing removed unwanted reflections and visible welding and polishing flaws. These changes were made to the photographs only; the products were not physically corrected.
I reviewed the edited photographs for a realistic appearance and checked for editing artefacts. In my assessment, the finished images had a clean appearance similar to 3D renders, although they were photographs of the actual products.
Before-and-after photographs have been retained to document the changes made during retouching.
This assignment reinforced the importance of checking the available space before planning the lighting setup. For this shoot, outdoor shade provided a workable alternative to setting up strobes inside the workshop, with further reflection removal completed during editing.
Our on-site industrial product photography service covers equipment and manufactured products at the client's premises.
