- Warning: Contains very dry humour and coarse language
This product photography tutorial is taken direct from my offical photography course (thephotography...) and gives you the most indepth walk-through of taking various types of product photos that I've created so far.
This tutorial does require a basic understanding of cameras, which can be learnt from my previous tutorials.
This will hopefully fill many gaps and answer many earlier questions about how to light and photograph your products. I do hope you learn a lot from this.

Once again I thanking you, I learnt so much from your this tutorial..with use of natural light, flash, nature light with reflector, flash with reflector..and so many angle with different objects .. wonderful class I had...have a nice teaching journey, god bless you.. regards, you are my guru for this field...❤❤❤🎉
Thanks a lot 😊👍
Nice Jacket!
Thanks dude
I truly LOVE the no bs and purity of this video. It feels like a friend just teaching another friend some shit and I really appreciate that. It's very authentic and the swearing in my opinion is what brings that authenticity. It's very shoot from the hip and I wish TH-cam would promote these types videos over the fake shilling crap. We need more of this!
Brilliant. Thanks for that, bro
@@LukeAyers You're welcome! Keep 'em coming 🙏
The close your reflor is the light it will bounce back
JPEG is an abbreviation for Joint Photographic Experts Group.
Luke, I watch your videos a lot. I watch them over and over again until it becomes second nature. One thing I've noticed is how you light your subjects. You seems to always have three lights - one from the left, one from the right, and one overhead. My question is, when should you consider using a fourth or maybe even a fifth light? Thanks for all your knowledge.
Thanks man. You determine how many lights to use by simply looking at the subject. Does it NEED another light or not? And what angle would that light help improve the appearance of the subject. That’s what I think. There are no rules really. Only what helps improve the appearance of the subject.
@@LukeAyers I agree with everything you've said, but the problem is I don't get from my photos what I envision. How do you do that?
@@ericweiler6571 best advice I ever saw was “If you can imagine it, you can create it with light.” Keep studying lighting and you might find all your answers there
The technical learning is amazing but most valuable above all is how you confirm that professionals in real life just move the lights and modifiers around till they find something that looks good-whatever that may be, and depending on the object. It really dispels the fear that there is something more to being a pro or a good photographer we is beyond this and very difficult to learn. Practice builds experience-I will keep playing with light and note the differences. Thank you.
That's awesome, and absolutely 👌👌 it's just practice and playing around. Nothing serious
Nice to hear some Australian accents in this space.
Luke Raw and uncensored photography series. 👍👏
You’re just great! I know these information, having no music, long tutorial, Yet I enjoyed every second and didn’t feel the time. Amazing
Thanks mate!
Just found your videos recently and I have to say I love them. So much useful information with no BS Thank you Luke for sharing your skills I have seen an improvement in my Product photography already with very little equipment other than 1 off camera flash and a remote trigger. You have revitalised my interest in photography
That’s excellent to hear! Thanks for the feedback and glad I can help, mate
I like this guy 😂
I thought I was crazy because of how many times I had to change angles and light position etc. It was great to see you in the natural process of finding what works best for each product. Thank you.
Awesome. You’re welcome.
It's great to hear an accent like my own teaching photography! The information and communication are exceptional :).
Thanks Paul!
What is the camera you are using here, please? 📸🧐
... and AWESOME content, Luke. Such a rare find these days on TH-cam 😅 THANK YOU!!
Thank you. It’s a Nikon D600
This guy is fucking awesome. The trick with the watch is genius. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. FUCK ONE, FUCK TWO, FUCK THREE
Hahah thanks mate
Simply Priceless. Thank You🙏🏿
This is the most entertaining tutorials ever lol. Love it.
Thanks
I’m HERE for the cussing! 🤣
Keepin’ it real! 👍🏼 I am LOVING your videos! Trying to learn how to take good ebay pics now that I’m getting rolling on that again. I have not found ANYONE that gives this $hit to me in a f’n no-nonsense way like you! 🙏🏼
I appreciate these videos!
Thank you!
Wonderful. Love it 😊👍
😂😂😂😂 you are funny. I wish you are a live class room teacher. You are the best teacher on TH-cam.
Haha thank you
thank you for sharing!I love your video!
Love your lecture, so entertaining!
Luke can u please inform us with the name of the macro lens that u are using in this video ? Also can u give a recommendation for a cheap macro Lens for Nikon that can do the job right for jewelery photography? I can’t focus 😅
this is the best photography tutorial i've ever watched (and i have watched ALOT)
Awesome. Thanks man!
@@LukeAyers I haven't even finish this (i'a at 45:22) but you already replied, wow
Thank you , I learned so much .
You're welcome
mix of elon and middleditch
Not bothered by the swearing at all, didn't notice it until I read comments. They are just words after all, do what makes you comfortable. Much appreciation for your videos, just getting into product photography for my art and handmade items and I really appreciate this long format walking us through. Thanks Luke :) p.s you have a very nice quality to your voice (weird compliment I know, but it makes listening a pleasure).
Haha thank you very much. That's very good to know 😁👍
Randomly found your page today. Been staying out of our oppressive California summer heat doing some TH-cam research. Watching your videos all day with my wife who is looking to up her photography game for her business. Trying to make sense of photography has never been so virtually tangible. Thanks for all of the no nonsense tips. This video was especially funny for me, all the swearing and what have you. After your other tutorials it all came together watching this one with the summation of all of the information from previous clips. Well done.
Guessing by the date of the video you may have been at your wits end with pandemic restrictions. Understandable. Wishing you and yours all the best.
Excellent. Glad it’s helping! My pleasure
loved the no bs approach.
We need more teachers like him
Take a drink every time he says "Ok Good"
Yup
I would be drunk AF. I cannot unhear it now. It's like confirmation of something eventhough noone is there to confirm. It's a replacement for commas and periods in sentences. I swear I can find some places where it's said twice back to back with nothing in between 😉
Im hammered
Alcohol poisoned
😂🎉
Thanks this tuitorial, never been bored watching this. Haha
Haha great
Thank you for this tutorial video it helps me a lot for product photography 🌹🌹
Great. You’re welcome
Channelling Jeff Goldblum. Cheers for this - very practical, useable info. Appreciate your generosity.
Luke is the hero we need.
I subscribed when i heard you swear even though i watched four of your videos and enjoyed them I only got a sense of your personality when you started talking "normally"
Thanks for the videos
Haha that's great 😁
omg this is so helpful, thank you for sharing luke !!!
Awesome. You're welcome
You remind me of a young modern-day Pauly Shore if he chose shutter speeds instead of gutter weeds, haha. This was a great video. Very relaxed and real. Thank you for vicariously helping me set up my online shop!
Hehe thanks. You’re welcome
Your a great teacher
I wish everyone makes long videos like this
hahaha. your videos are always fun. Subscribed.
I'm not a photographer by any means. I've never had more than a point n shoot camera, but it's cool to see how playing with the light changes the image. I've even found some ways to apply some of it to my simple camera.
Awesome bro
I love this guy
THANKS LUKE!
Pleasure, mate 👍
Really broke it down. Nice vids
Thanks Luke for this!! Would love to see a similar tutorial using a light box studio for product photography next
Much love!
Ok cool!
+1 softbox tutorial I'd watch it on repeat everyday!
Yes, please!
Just what I was looking for! 💙
Great tutorial!!!
Great video 👍 Can you explain about out door photography and how we can take better photos in sunshine, iso setting etc
You very much alike Jeff goldblum in this video , like better with less language especially for your usual teaching methods that kids can watch , otherwise another great video
Thanks Dave
Aparatur, shutter speed... This really drove me back to days using film photo camera.
Awesome
Very helpful
This is great stuff!
Love the tutorial! I feel like the way you talk is an Australian mix between Elon Musk and Jeff Goldblum.
Haha thanks mate
You cover the exact content that I need and answer the questions that I have. ❤ Maybe drop the swearing if you'd be so kind 😊
soo good thanks bro!
No worries, man
Viewer number 1 possibly? Excitement!
Thanks for such a hilarious and informative video. I was on the edge of my seat wondering how the next photo was going to turn out. Way to change my life for the better, Luke. OK? Good!
OK. Good. Thank you 😁👌👌
Same here😉👌🏻 and I am German but would swear he says Guuut😈 OK? Guut! MFR😂
You have to be very knowledgeable to teach that way.
I love this guy. His swearing makes the video funny and his videos are so informative. Keep up the good work brother
Thanks man!
Wooo, next video..
Ok good
Yes it’s very hot here today in San Francisco. All fans are sold out.
Your videos are amazing material. Also love how you do one-take so we can see the whole process v. a bunch of jump cuts where the person shows you something in 10 minutes and you learn nothing. Ho hum to the anti-swearing crowd, you deliver it in your way and it was incredibly helpful material. Thanks mate!
Thanks buddy!
In the world of shorts and reels, we found a gem.
Seriously underrated content.
Thank you for the lesson Luke
Thanks. You're welcome
Good info, as usual. I will say that this video being 720p pained me for 40 minutes.
Well done on surviving the worst of it 👏
This is comedy gold. Love it.
Very valuable lessons.
Following you...
Thank you
In addition to your wealth of knowledge, thank you, your explanation of all the shots in this video were described in a language I use fluently! Every or every other sentence should have an F bomb in it! Meanwhile, I’m still stuck on auto with my camera, or I use my phone……..I know, pitiful right? I just need to shoot candles for Shopify. I did pay close attention to the description of what was wrong, or right with each shot. Thank you Luke, I fucking love your channel! Much love to you, in oneness!
That's great to hear. Thank you very much.
Try the first 2 lessons of the course and see if you like it

@@LukeAyers Thank you so very much! I’m very appreciative! Much love to you.
Is there a video where you cut out the shadow on your final image in photoshop? Love your authenticity, keep it up, greetings from Greece!
Thank you. Yes check out the professor chesswick video
I am new to photos and have product I need to photograph, thank you for your help you are a FUCKING Riot!! \m/, Love it!!
Haha thank you. You're welcome
Thanks for clarifying the ISO feature. I know for sure on lower end camera’s you have to be careful otherwise you will introduce noise which is why I was not a fan of ISO. But now it makes sense why photographers would choose to get a higher end camera since it can handle a higher ISO setting before potentially introducing noise, plus other cool features it may have over the lower end camera’s.
Dude ur funny. I like. Natural straight talk and no bullshit! My style...
Awesome. I'm glad. You might like the coarse language in my full course thephotographycourse.thinkific.com/
Love love love ❤
I wish my professors taught like this.
Well Done Mate! I think we both need a beer after that. I appreciate the simplicity with which you present the material.
Thanks David 😊
Big thanks man, i want to start working with photography asap and since i have zero experiente, bougth a camera last month and have been trying it, your explanations are the best, i want to enter the market doing mostly real estate and product photography, this migth seem odd but i dont like working with people, so i feel unconfortable about portraits and wedding photography. Thanks you again
That's perfectly fine, dude. I started with only products for years before I shot people. Just take it step by step and you will be fine.
Could you explain to us more about using or not using an ambient light during taking photos, please?
Sure. More videos are needed on this. Ok
Love the details in your tutorial! By the way, what are those colorful chains on the stand near the window?
Just colored chains to pull down the rolls of paper hanging above
Mad guy lmao this helped a lot though
kkkkkkkkk he looks like an actor in a movie explainning something kkkkkkk this dude is an actor, even if he dosent know that is is an actor kkkkkkkkk he is funny, crazy, harsh, lovely in a very tiny spce of timme kkkkkkkk
dude is amazing
Samsung phones have been able to shoot in JPEG + RAW for a good while :)
"ok good"
Nice tutorial! Can you also make an in-depth video about strobe vs continuous light, speedlights, flash lights, softbox, different reflector colours and effects, snoots, and diffusors?
That's stuff is all included in my online course.
thephotographycourse.thinkific.com
@@LukeAyers Ah ok thank you!
Why the fuck your long videos don't feels like it... I have been Binge watching your videos since 3hrs😅
Haha thank you
Thank you so much for making me understand that a normal camera can click amazing photos with proper lighting. I am glad that I learnt concept of lighting from you😇🙏
You are sk cute. I fucking love you. I'm spending winter in the desert, I normally live In Minnesota. But this year I am switching things up. So keep up the easy to follow tutorials.
great video
Thank you
Luke, you have really helped me with product photography. My question is, where do you start with lighting? I have several soft boxes but I’m trying to understand placement. With my small subjects I use an enclosure/box. But for bigger subjects I use soft boxes. Can you tell me how a basic set up would be? I know it’s about shadows but what else am I supposed to achieve with continuous lighting? It might sound like stupid questions but I’m trying to understand the art of photography and lighting. Thank you in advance. You’re the best
Hey dude. Well that’s probably where my big course fills in the gaps. But to practice you should just start with a single softbox and play around and see what angles make your product or person look “good”. There’s really no law about what looks good except what you or the majority thinks looks good. That’s why it’s a bit of an art and not a science so much. But start with a single light. Then when you feel good and confident with that then try adding two lights and so on. That’s a good way to practice. For more then that’s why I made my photography course
I’m getting Jeff Goldblum vibes.
Thank you so much for teaching the swear words . oh ye and few photgraphy tips too . LOl
I subscribed because of your swearing hahahaha
Cheers :)
Nice video , sir can we use mirrorless camera for product photography?
Yes of course 👍
What would you recommend for a beginner, DSLR camera or Mirrorless? I'm literally going through all of your videos right now! Super informative since I'm looking into being a product photographer 😌❤️
Awesome Victoria! Look at my FAQ video
Bro.... My a.d.d is kicking in... 😂😂
6:21 "you like my cursing? i'll do more of it"
Also, please so some friggin affiliate Amazon links to what you are using! Trying to piece it together as we'd like to buy a flash & soft box, would love to see what you use, and for you to get some kickback for when we buy it :)
I don't have affiliate links, but here's the items used in this video:
Yongnuo YN560III flash
Yongnuo RF-603 trigger (nikon version)
Godox P90L softbox
Okay, good.
Luke: Let me piss the Sun off real quick
Me: How?
Luke: 30:31
Absolutely loved the content!! As an amateur photographer, I just wanna ask you for some tips about how to get brands to give me products to photograph?
Love from India
For sure! And thank you
