Further Along with Mobile Devices

Working on a new portfolio, and today's the first time I've put all the pictures together and had a close look at them. The things I notice:

  • I'm not sure I want to stay with mobile devices. I think I'll expand to the whole high tech category
  • I need to shoot more. I noticed I keep trying to make more pictures via retouching, which has never really worked for me.
  • Turns out completely revolutionizing the way mobile devices are shot is harder than you'd think.

Most of these are most of the way there, but none of them are all the way there. "There" being "finished".

Anyways. What do you think?

Galaxy Tab paper model.

This looks a lot better with a screen, but it still sits there funny. And I don't mean ha ha.

I think this looks better with an image on the screen, but I don't think that's the right image.

I think I can light these in a way that's more exciting. Kinda fun though.

I like this one quite a lot...

but this is my favorite.

Mobile Devices

Starting a new portfolio for hi tech stuff. Two I like so far, one I'm not sure about. HTC EVO 4G. I haven't fired it up, but the design of this phone is quite nice. The interior is all red, so expect to see some more of that soon. The back cover is thin and flexible though, and seems like it's about to pop off all the time.

Blackberry Torch. The finish on this phone let me work out this new lighting technique. The phone itself is very stylish, so that helps.

Samsung Galaxy Tab. This thing is a brick, essentially. Hard to find a way to spice it up, hence the weird background treatment. I think a screen would help, and maybe I'll shoot the backside, as that has a little more interest.
