Beverage photography is hard, y’all. All the food I’ve ever photographed has been real and reasonably easy to shoot, but ask me to get 5 drinks together at the same time and get a couple different angles? That’s maybe the hardest thing I’ve done from a food photography perspective. The ice is constantly dying… the drinks are constantly dying. In unison. As an extrapolation of something Marco once said, five minutes is an eternity. Not quite as bad as cooking fish, but close.

Anyway, I’m not a professional beverage photographer, but I’m not not a professional beverage photographer, so I see the shortcomings and know where and how to do better in the future. But these drinks look great, and my staging will look even better next time.
