This is a combination of personal diary, real time folio and photography visual diary for Brad Hill Imaging... specializing in Commercial and Architectural Photography. It is mainly for me to keep track of where I've been but also for clients, friends and family to see what I've been up to. I will post a photo or two a week that I have taken for a client or myself.

The varied life of a freelancer!
Hey!
I have had a massive couple of weeks which is great! I thought I would post a select sample of shots from a couple of shoots in the last 48 hours... no two days are the same... some of it may not be glamorous but I love it and to be honest if I didn't have to feed and clothe myself I would probably do it for free! (If you are a client don't get any ideas!!)

Wine Bottles
Hey,
I did a post back in January about wine bottles but I have developed my range of styles a bit since and thought it was time to show you the difference.
Firstly... the final image.
Here is the setup...
-Camera in the foreground... zoomed to about 250mm. f10, 200th roughly.
-Speedlite with snoot on the far left... (a snoot directs a very narrow beam of light, in this case at the label. It is homemade out of that 'twin plastic board'... realestate agent 'for-sale' signs.)
-Sheet of glass as a table for the bottle.
-2nd speedlite under the bottle to light the background.
-Small black-card with white A4 paper as a reflector on the LHS of the bottle.
-Large black-card on RHS of bottle to block most of the light. (easier to see in next pic)
-Black sheet over part of the background to create a nice sharp line down the RHS of the bottle.
-100cm X 80ch softbox on the 90 degrees to the RHS.
Closer view... yes they are professionally approved salt and pepper shakers!
From this angle you can see the gap that creates the nice highlight down the RHS of the bottle.
From behind...
And it looks just as good with Red Wine.
Cheers,
Brad.

You may not notice a huge difference from the January shoot but technically it is quite different.

Exotic Pools
Hey,
With the Wineries of Victoria Magazine finished and at the printers I'm moving onto the Pools Magazine and the Kitchens Magazine. Here are some shots of a shoot I did for Exotic Pools... I think the timing was perfect as far as the color in the trees goes.
Cheers,
Brad.
