Metal & Glass

Metal and glass are challenging to photograph because they are highly reflective. Chrome metals and brushed metals react completely differently to light just like shiny glass and glass with a matte surface. You light both of these materials with reflections and you can use light boxes, fill cards, diffusion panels, or strip lights. You want to use a light source that gives nice broad diffused highlight because, “What you see is what you get”.

Again: Shiny products ‘see’ what you place in front, above, or next to the product.
