PROTEX CAR CLEANING PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY

15/02/2018
John Somer, owner of Auto Useful and the Protex brand wanted to use the products in a classic setting. The use of old radios, car brochures and other period items worked nicely with the product which has a reputation in the classic car world for its quality, plus it is also produced in the UK. We used a variety of backdrops as John had a specific brief for the website which was going to have a makeover in the next few weeks. John had also asked for a selection of classic and sports car photographs from my stock library.

I used two Profoto lights, the B2 and A1 which with its reduced power over the larger 250 watt light gave a nice soft fill light, with black bottles I wanted the edges and shadows to be defended against the various backdrops that we used. The product photography session finished with a portrait of John against his beautiful Rover P100 which will be used for the website contact page and other media outlets.
