Vikram Franklin replied
Thank you Debra – when I’m lost for things to photograph these little glasses always seem to be a source of inspiration (empty and infront of a camera!). You can see some of the shots here
Joanne Bradley
Fantastic work! This would make a dynamic marketing advertisement!
Vikram Franklin replied
Thanks Joanne – that’s actually where the inspiration came from – I saw an Absolut ad and wondered how I would shoot mine – but they’re Waaaay more creative!

Great lighting! I like the slightly squashed reflection. it works really well compositionally…
Vikram Franklin replied
Thanks George – I have one where the reflection reflection is perfect, but felt that this imperfection was what was needed to not leave it ‘sterile’.
Victoria Kidgell
Totally love everything about this shot. It could definitely be an advert! I love the clean lines, bright white contrasting so well with the blue. Wonderful – what an inspiration!

Shelly Hiebert
This is amazing Vikram….you should contact Absolute I am thinking! I don’t drink Vodka but looking at this makes me want to! And thanks for all the technical info because you know if you had not added it….I would have asked. Interesting to use the flash behind the bottle and great to see you using it, and so effectively :)
Vikram Franklin replied
Thanks Shelly – he, he, he – Absolut has some of the best photographers in the world working on their campaigns!!!
I posted the flash stuff knowing you’d ask ;-)
