Some new drinks photography shot in sunny Cape Town. With these lifestyle images I wanted to capture some real moments of connection. With these sorts of shoots it's all about setting the stage and bringing the right mood to set so people are genuinely relaxed and having fun. You can’t fake it. We shot on a rooftop as the sun went down so we had all those lovely warm hues; sundowner, sunset colors to play with.
The window of shooting was tight as that sun sets faster than you would have imagined. We shot big spritz glasses and used some hard shadow lines to add interest and shape. Keeping the drinks looking at their very best is a key challenge in the heat. Ice, ice and more ice.
As a lifestyle photographer shooting drinks you can’t really ask for more than what Cape Town has to offer.
