Studio Still Life Whisky Shoot

Project Details

Shooting Context

As part of a collaboration with Maison du Whisky, we created a series of studio still lifes to elevate the image of Dalmore, a renowned name in the world of whisky. The goal was to capture the depth and richness of the product through two distinct visual styles. On one hand, a dark and elegant setup highlighting the bottle and its packaging; on the other, two immersive hero shots showcasing the bottle alongside a tasting glass.

Challenges Encountered

  • Creating an atmosphere that reflects the tasting experience through lighting and staging.

  • Enhancing product details such as glass reflections, label texture, and whisky hues.

  • Differentiating the visual approaches between a classic still life and two immersive hero shots.

Solutions Provided

  • Dark and Elegant Ambiance: carefully crafted lighting to create subtle reflections that emphasize the bottle and its packaging.

  • Refined Hero Shot: a staged scene with a filled tasting glass, capturing the whisky’s brilliance and golden tones.

  • Fine Post-Production: subtle retouching to harmonize contrasts and enhance the visual intensity of the images.

Let’s discuss

Spirit still life photography enhances the image of a premium whisky by capturing its nuances and depth. A whisky ambiance packshot highlights the bottle, its packaging, and its sensory universe through carefully crafted lighting and composition. The spirit hero shot adds an immersive dimension by featuring a tasting glass, reflecting the color and texture of the product. This type of bottle photography is essential for advertising campaigns, social media, and marketing materials, ensuring premium and impactful visuals.
