Holly c**p.....

Dan was referred to me via another photographer who doesn't do product photography and he had an unusual task for me, he had antique religious icons, a lot of them and he needed pictures but he wanted the pictures to look amature. it had to look like its a "treasure" someone has found in his basement

Dan is collecting antique items, this lot had 500 items ranging from small painting to huge and heavy paintings. all of them painted on wood (very heavy) and most of them are 150-300 years old.

i like this kind of assignments since it gives me a chance to do something different, its a challenge especially when you have to shoot outside of the studio with less control over lighting and equipment. luckily i have a "mobile studio" so i can drop a quick background arrange some lights and im good to go.
