Watch Photography Pro Tutorial | Rolex Timepieces | Luxurious Advertising Watch Images
In this tutorial, I take you along as I create an advertising image of two Rolex watches. The setup for this watch photography tutorial used a total of 7 lights. It was photographed using the Sony A1 and the sony 50mm G Master.
Watch photography can be tricky as you have to deal with reflective surfaces and a variety of textures. After the photo was completed I replaced the background in photoshop with something that complements the elements we already have to create a luxurious advertising photograph.
Hope this watch photography tutorial is helpful to you. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions!

Great video! What are those C-clips called (at 0:32)? I can only find ones with a stand and they don't look springy like yours.
Good stuff!
You’re the GOAT man 👏

Something I would like to know too. The ones I found had an extrusion to mount on a base, which I do not want

They don’t sell the same one I have any more, but something like this will work: amzn.to/49YGkEW .You may just need to cut the excess plastic with some pliers
This is amazing! Where can i order these white props to build the scene? Thank you for sharing this !
Where did you bought the watch display stand too that you used ? What a fantastic work, you are a good professional and thank for sharing all the knowledge!

Those curved plastic diffusers seem really useful. Where did you get those?

Where did you get the bracelet that goes inside the watch to keep it standing? I looked it up on Amazon, but I don't find any like that.

Hi Frank, really great video. Thanks. I was wondering where you got the watch display bracelet and those curved white acrylic diffusers.

Thanks Frank! That might be an interesting tutorial. Keep up the good work, very inspiring.@@FrankCastilloPhoto
thx looks great. amazing so much light is needed from all sides and angles. Why not just move the light around and shoot untill everything is properly lit from all sides and then layer the photos?
@FrankCastilloPhoto

It’s faster to illuminate than merge all the layers in photoshop. Plus I can see result with all lights during the shoot. For me is more simple this way
I would also love to know more about the background image, was that created with 3d software? How did you make it?
@FrankCastilloPhoto

hi! the background image is a stock photo that I bought
how did you move the crown in in photoshop?
and this is how you get an instant follow...
why not show exposure and camera settings as well...that's what I was waiting for bro!
WHERE CAN WE GET THAT BRACLET FOR SHAPE
When the setup is worth as much as the watch.
The pusher is unscrew on both watches.

Did you see the final image? Those are pushed down in photoshop. They are up so the time stays still while I set up the photo

Could I just photoshop the plastic off? Or would that be unwise?
@FrankCastilloPhoto
7 ай бұрын
you can certainly do that, or you could angle the watch to not show that. But if you have a lot of photos to created, it may just be easier and faster to cut it off.@@quintonmartinez741
do you or anyone here have any idea on how we can shoot watches with a ring light avoiding the glare from said ring light?
Anyone has a link for these c shape bracelets?
