Red wine product shot

This week I was preparing for a product shoot (more to come this week on that). In order to get the setup right and the lighting just right, I needed to do some testing. I ended up shooting some red wine (although the red doesn’t pop enough in this shot).

Tech info: 2 sb25 flashes. One in homemade softbox behind the glass (cannot see in shot) at 1/2 power. A back piece of foam core was used as the background with the softbox surrounding the foam core. The second flash was at 1/4 power with a grid spot to create spotlight effect behind the glass. A glass plate and black fabric under the glass plate was used to create the reflection. I poured the and pressed the shutter release at the same time.
