Rent a product shoot location in Vancouver, BC

Product photography is a commercial still life genre focused on finding the most creative and flattering angles of commercial goods. By using ideal lighting, composition, and the guidance of the client, product photographers tell immersive stories about the promise of a brand. They can even provide a taste of an item using solely the visual medium to bring out elements of texture, color, and form.
Good product photography requires a space that makes creative images possible. Photographers need total control over the light levels, props to convey a lifestyle narrative, and a lack of distractions to make good images. Vancouver's status as a city for the arts means it's the best place in Western Canada for product photographers to be based in.

Most product photographers in Vancouver use studios designed for this niche. A product photography studio has all of the essentials of a traditional studio with a few more additions.
For example, you'll need a full kitchen for styling, preparation, and props if your product niche is food and beverages. For an automotive photographer, look into product studios with loading bays for heavy equipment and large off-camera light stands. Fashion product photographers will need the same accessories as a portrait studio for working with models, not to mention infinity backgrounds for ecommerce apparel shots.
Vancouver commercial photography studios are usually part of a creative complex, warehouse, or loft studio complex. You can rent one for as little as an hour of time, which is perfect if you have your concept thoroughly planned and just need a quiet space to work in. Product photography studio rentals may also include extras. Macro lens rentals are very handy for close-up work and constant lights make it easier to photograph products without having to calibrate your flash units first.

Natural light product photography is popular with cosmetics, food, apparel, and other subjects where you may want to convey a lifestyle element along with the beauty of an item. Working outdoors is rarely convenient, however, especially in a city with such moody weather as Vancouver. A natural light studio will give you plenty of diffused sunlight to work with. Just be sure to inquire beforehand with the studio owners as sunlight access depends on the direction the windows face, the time of day, and the seasons! You don't want to book a natural light studio in Vancouver only to find there's none during your chosen hours.
