Magic Floating Organic Carrot

MR. MATTHEW G. Monroe turned his boredom with the typical product shot into inspiration for the “The Magic Floating Organic Carrot.” By bringing the carrot away from the background and using a short depth of field, Matthew keeps your eye where he wants it. Just one flash lights the scene. Aimed into a softbox camera right, the light spreads out to hit the bounce cards and a piece of foil. The foil helps bring some snap to the bottom rim of the orange veggie by changing the quality of the light.
