My photoshop work

At the time of the shoot, the client didn't know what direction to go with the ad campaign so the berries were shot on a plain background. Below is the before and after image (minus the type from the ad). I selected a few berries and dropped them out on a neutral background to start the job.

I'm not quite sure what direction you are trying to go. There should be a clear difference between the shadows and reflections. Possibly have the fruit placed on a table to help distinguishing the shadows and reflections. It also lacks depth and color.

Bottom line, it was cheaper for me to recreate it in photoshop than it would have been to go back into a real photo studio and reshoot the berries in this way.

I'm no expert designer, but it's all just trial and error. Do you have a portfolio? I'd love to see more work. Feel free to check out mine..

I look at tutorials in my spare time to get inspiration for designs and to learn new techniques. Here is a great site for Photoshop tutorials, Psdtuts+ | Adobe Photoshop tutorials, from beginner to advanced.

Thanks for the link. I never get tired of looking at tutorials. Always something to learn.
And as for my portfolio, I've been at my current job for over 10 years and I have only gathered printed samples over the years but have not gathered my work into an online portfolio. It is something I'm working on now. Something to do when I get free time!

Out of respect for Stev27, he is looking for a critique, some words of wisdom that will be helpful to his design. As a designer, I just feel as though it's disrespectful to talk bad about someone's work rather than critique it.ahmm, i think you did this on a bad day dude? you didn't have much in mind in making the image, really need lots of changes, anyway just a my opinion and by the way its really is a headache on to which direction it'll drop ? or something.....

I totally agree with you N.T, If you are going to be negative then be ready to offer positive advice on how to fix what you see wrong. Sure is the picture perfect no, however it is not too bad, there are some shadow misdirections which can be easily fixed but I feel the composition is done quite nicely. If you want to be critical at least be able to offer your help for improvement.

This is something I did for a client some time ago but I had made a short W.I.P. for it and I thought I would share it here. This was part of a larger project and I spent so much time staring at it that I'm curious what fresh eyes would see that I may have missed. I was never happy with the reflections, what do you think?

Good work. I like how you have a little color in the shadow and different points of light sources.

I see what you're saying. If you're ever having a tough time with a design, I find it very helpful to find a tutorial that is similar to what you are doing, it gives you an insight on how to get the look you want.

Did you get that t-shirt printed? That's my speciality. Apparel design.

Are you referring to the design on my portfolio? If so, then no, I didn't get it printed. I created the design because I was bored and thought it would look good on a shirt. So I found photoshop t-shirt templates and put the design on it. I would love to get it printed though. I think they would sell.Did you get that t-shirt printed? That's my speciality. Apparel design.
