Man Beast Beard Product Photography

February 27, 2020 by Nick Bumgardner in Product Photography

I have always wanted to be able to grow a beard, but I was not blessed with the genes that would allow me to grow a good beard. I recently had a mens grooming company, Man Beast Beard reach out. Man Beast Beard has a full line of Beard Oils and Balms. These are ultra premium mens grooming products. They had a need for simple product images on white and black backgrounds. They wanted there products to look clean, and high end. These photos will live on the Man Beast Beard website and social media pages. The company has some fantastic packaging and branding so this became a really fun job. We even threw in some additional hero styled images for good measure.

Check out the catalog of images that we built below!

Images on Black

We started the shoot with images on a black background. The black background really gives the packaging a rich appearance.

I really love the box design. When you put two boxes next to each other they create a full image.

Images on White

For e-commerce, it is hard to beat a good crisp image on a white background. It ensures that your product stands off the page. Having crisp lighting really does make the images stand out.

Light and Airy Lifestyle Images

Right now the light and airy look is really popular for product photography. So we used two light surfaces to create a light and airy bathroom feel for this next set of images.

Dark and Moody Lifestyle Imagery

Since we are working with a mens grooming product I thought that a darker and moodier look would work well too. Check it out!

Wrap It Up!

That is how you create an image library! Photos on white, black and on lifestyle backgrounds. These are photos that can be run as Facebook and Instagram ads, can be used on websites, and as web headers. I had a blast createing these images for the client.
