Capturing Food and Drink Product Photography for Sussex Brand
I captured lifestyle product photography and video content for Firecrest Drinks, a Sussex liqueur brand, highlighting their Limon Gincello Liqueur. Firecrest is a family-run business based in Sussex and is also founded by the team behind The Condiment Co (you can see a previous shoot I did for them here). Their range focuses on small-batch gin liqueurs, including a Sloe Gin Liqueur, and their latest release, Limon Gincello. This limoncello-style liqueur puts a twist on the original by using London Dry Gin, giving it more depth of flavour and making it ideal for fresh, citrus-led cocktails.
Lifestyle Product Photography for Drink Brands
For this shoot, the brief was to create a mix of lifestyle product stills alongside short-form video content for social media. Taking inspiration from the Mediterranean ingredients, I styled the shoot with plenty of fresh lemons, and bright colours. I created a simple Citrus Spritz, capturing both a short social reel and stop-motion footage of the Gincello being poured into glasses, content designed to feel fresh, playful and easy to use across digital platforms.
Styling, Props and Creative Direction
As part of the shoot, I sourced props and styled the scene, working closely with Firecrest’s marketing team who shared their vision ahead of time. We planned the shoot in advance using mood boards and visual references, which helped shape the overall look and feel while leaving room for creative flexibility on the day.
Remote Product Photography for UK Brands
The shoot itself was carried out fully remotely, which is how I work with many food and drink brands across the UK. I styled and photographed everything in my studio, sharing progress shots with the client during the shoot so they could give feedback and sign things off as we went. This method works well for brands of any location, products can be sent by post, the shoot runs smoothly without needing to be on set, and everything is carefully planned in advance so the final images and videos align with their vision.
Working Together
