Still life product photography gives you the creative freedom to consider every detail of a shoot and transform your ideas in front of the camera. This is what drove Amy Currell, award-winning photographer and Leica Ambassador, to specialize in this branch. Through carefully crafted compositions, she artfully juxtaposes color, texture, shape, and shadows to create eye-catching images that have won over clients like Vogue, Selfridges, ELLE, and The Telegraph.

In this online course, Amy teaches you fundamentals of still life photography to compose and capture powerful images. Play with color, light, and set design in a studio environment to build striking scenes that bring products to life. Amy also shows you how to retouch your photos to send to a client or add to your portfolio.
