This item was a part of the first solo product shoot project that I was allowed to light, shoot, and edit on my own for a client. It took months of practice shoots using the most challenging props I could find in the studio to prepare for this. My goal was to display proper lighting, drop shadow, and color balance to make the product look accurate and have dimension.
As a studio assistant, I had to undergo a shoot critique before I was allowed to shoot customer product photos. This shoot, after critique, proved that I can shoot and light an object in a way that optimizes product depth and fine texture. This image was shown in the Milwaukee RAW Artists show.

The objective of this shoot was to show that I could style a shoot with multimedia, light and shoot clear liquids, and give the illusion of background depth with lighting.
This shoot demonstrated that I could stage and shoot lifestyle projects for current clients. Door County Coffee had a specific style and aesthetic that I familiarized myself with before creating the shot.
Subjects with multiple light sources need specific attention. This shoot proved that I can shoot a product that not only reflects light and is transparent, but is also lit by multiple light sources (natural flame and strobe lighting) and color temperatures.
