before the new year’s party kicked off, john suggested that we try and set up a shot with the bottle of hpnotiq. this drink is wickedly blue and we both thought it would be cool to backlight it and have the blue really come out. we weren’t able to get the shot that we really wanted, but i didn’t want to spend too much time trying to get the effect we wanted, but this is the best shot of the bunch.

it definitely renewed my interest in studio photography. i don’t think that this is something that i would pursue because part of the problem is that i just don’t have the patience to set up the shot and figure out how to make it work. trying to overly control the environment is so hard and so much work! i prefer to work with what i’ve got and make the best of it…but still, it was fun to do.
