I appreciate you saying that. I've always enjoyed sharing my work with the forum members here.

There's no bottle label in the first ... did the company want that so they could Photoshop in different ones later, or was this shot for you rather than them?

Thanks man! I try with the whole mood and atmosphere thing in my personal work which many of the models help me with. Trying to bring some of that over into the paid work and bring the models along too so they can also get paid. Win win for everyone.
It's a new wine for them called Golden Goddess so they haven't actually come up with the label art yet but the artists fly in tomorrow actually to start work on that. I was supposed to get some behind the scenes shots of them working on it but unfortunately I won't be available tomorrow.

Great shots, wonderful light and mood. Imagine your client's AD will no doubt enjoy the many areas of branding relief they will have to choose from.

Yes, the personal side is very important to me. I've been trying hard to cultivate a style/look as well as building a network of models and creatives in the area. So far I think it's been working because I've been busier than ever and I may have to quit my day job in the next few months.
Thanks for the compliments.
