New Espresso Warehouse Catalogue

October 21st, 2007

Just a quick one really – a while ago Espresso Warehouse got in touch and asked if I’d like to photograph their new catalogue.  I said yes without really thinking about it, and later discovered that this wasn’t as easy as I thought it might be, and I liked the challenge of trying to capture what they wanted.

The four days of shooting were a lot of fun – they wanted a more realistic feel for the products so we shot a lot of stuff in people’s cafes and I think my favourite photo is the one they’ve used on the contents page, shot along the bar of Tinderbox in Glasgow as the three baristas work.  This was my first professional photo gig and a lot of fun.

    Nice one Jim, from what i’ve seen your photography is more than good enough for this kind of thing.

    Glad your enjoyed your four days James – it was a pleasure having you up. We’ve had loads of comments that the photography looks great, and we’re really happy with it.

    You tried pouring in that big cup yet? Baca managed a decent rosetta in a 2litre cup that we found in Milan – pics online soon…
