Shooting LUSH:

Shooting a retail interior is always a challenge. Dealing with multiple light sources—display lighting, floor lighting, signage, ceiling lights—each with varying color temperatures, often makes post-processing complex. Controlling the brightness of commercial fixtures is seldom an option since commercial-grade dimmers are costly, and retailers prefer their products to be brightly lit.

We encountered all these challenges when photographing LUSH Cosmetics in Houston. To add to the complexity, we had less than an hour to complete the shoot before staff began opening preparations. Despite the constraints, we captured about a dozen exposures that processed smoothly and resulted in high-quality images.

Below are a few highlights from this shoot. To see more of our work, please visit our website. www.normansizemore.com
