Shot Notes
This is my original iPhone bought on the release day over here in the UK. It’s served me very well for over 9 months now, and I’m sorry to see it go. However, it’s all for a good cause: the upgrade to the iPhone 3G.
Taking the shot was actually more tricky than you’d think. To get the blacks to look right, you couldn’t really use the ambient lighting with flash and we didn’t have any studio lights available. Instead, I pre-focused, turned off all the lights and fired flash only, bouncing to diffuse and get a softer light.
I had some black fabric which was okay, but with the dual flash arrangement we had going it was way too reflective. In the end, one of Mark‘s t-shirts turned out to be pretty good in providing a non-reflective background.
