I've spent a lot of time watching product photography videos on YT, in spurts over the last year or so. The main thing I've learned is that, a truly professional product photo...of ANYTHING, even (maybe especially) for a pro, is at a minimum hours worth of effort.
Some pros will sometimes spend a couple of days or so, to perfectly light an object and get that sublime shot. I thought it would be easy...and, I've been able to get some good shots...but, so far, i've not been able to get a single shot that I have truly been fully satisfied with... There is always something, just not the right highlights, not the right background, not the right illumination in general...
The tough thing is, to actually control light thouroughly enough to actually GET a truly professional product photo, you need to invest a heck of a lot of money in a heck of a lot of gear, then spend a heck of a lot of time and effort to learn how to control light... It is possible, but wow, is it truly a skill and a science! I've accumulated a decent pile of equipment now, including multiple light stands, BIG lights, small lights, BRIGHT lights, soft lights, colored lights, reflectors, diffusers, and a bunch of backdrop material. I've learned a little bit, and now I know just how far I am, from ever getting a shot I would truly be proud of, with all the right highlights, shadows and shading in all the right places.
I keep plugging away at it, but...I've settled into the knowledge that, its going to be years before I finally achieve my goal. :\
