Photographing Weight Loss Products

by dav.d

It was a busy Friday! At 4am I received an email requesting photography for several Pharmanex weight loss products in the TR90 lineup. Pharmanex is the supplement brand for Nu Skin. And Nu Skin is my day job. We have JVi which is not one of the TR90 products but is is a blend of fruit and vegetable concentrates and juices from Europe. And then we had a Lemon Crisp bar and a chocolate bar for the busy person on the go.

I imitated the photography style of a photographer who shoots most all of our product. It’s important to have a consistent style for a corporation and so I did my best to imitate his shooting style with one light, bounce cards, and a white background. I did the Photoshop retouching myself since our full time retoucher is enjoying Disneyland!

With a little feedback from the European market, I made a few additional changes to the images. I will confess, it can be helpful to have someone looking over the shoulder with good suggestions.

And I have been building my own v-flats, bounce cards and more from foam core here in the office. I’m hoping someday we have a full fledge studio space so it makes things easier. I dare to dream.
