Here are my thoughts!
* The first shot is the only one that I really felt was properly exposed (probably because it was edited to perfection).
* I find it odd that two corners of the wooden surface are visible. I feel like the surface should extend off the right and left sides of the image.
* Having said that, I love how the wooden surface fades off into white. It doesn’t draw attention.
* In the first one, I like how the snow is not evenly sprinkled, but gathered up in corners and along edges like it was blown there by the wind.
* Props are awesome. Not a distraction from the product.
* Perhaps arrange propers in groups of odd numbers, instead of even numbers.
* Focus should definitely be more on the beginning of the words “Looking” and “Upwards” instead of more on the end of the words. My first look at the image I thought the product was out of focus.
* Love the extreme DOF! both foreground and background are out of focus creating that awesome illusion of depth.
* Awesome color scheme. The props match the product.
* I like how the wooden surface isn’t dark wood; with the snow on it I think it would look distractingly speckled. Not sure. Dark wood would contrast the product better though.
* Perhaps make the star not in as prominent of a location.
Keep up the AWESOME work! Better than any product setup I’ve ever done, I’d say!
