Skittles are my personal favorite candy and so I wanted to shoot with them. Before we opened them up and used them any other photos, we took a nice shot of the two unopened packets.
This was taken towards the end of our shoot and we wanted the jolly rancher to have a bit of a glow to it. So with good lighting and water reflecting on it, that's just what it did.
This image was also at the very end after we got all the pictures we had wanted. We put most of the candy that we had used and combined it all to make a neat plethora of candy.
This image was on our first day and we wanted to portray someone spilling their snack all over the ground. We felt that this gave a good representation of the snacks falling out of the ziplock bag.
Here we have the bazooka gum and the cotton ball along with the taffy sandwiched in the middle, but in this case the idea was a little jenga looking tower to showcase these three items.
We used the light again to display the show of details on the wrappers of the taffy and gum up close. We put both items in the image, but the primary focus was the taffy.
This image shows someone opening up a jolly rancher to enjoy and the sense of this was to show the candy being cracked open for the first time.
The day we shot this image, we were strictly using the egg and applying different visions and colors to create different perceptions. This was taken at the beginning before we painted and did other things to the egg.
This image makes me think of a band where the lead singer is standing in front and the other two backups and standing behind him. The one item is in the front and the other two "foods" are in the back.
This was taken right after the very first picture and we just dumped the majority of the Skittles out. I liked how this looked because of the different blends and combinations of colors.
I remember this image taking forever because we simply couldn't get the fork to stay straight up and after we finally did, it felt great to get a good looking image. We liked the look of the fork stabbing through the Tootsie Roll.
This was taken at one of the ledges at the side of the middle school. We tried throwing the bag up in that spot and it landed perfectly so we got a great image of the pack of Goldfish from somewhat of a distance, but also elevation which gives it a different depth feel than some of the other images.
Pictured here, the goal of this was to make the Goldfish look like the scene from the movie "It" where the clown is in the drain calling the boys name. The Goldfish are almost being sucked into the drain.
After we got shots of massive loads of Skittles, we thought it may look good to also get some of less amounts of Skittles together. So we took two of my favorite flavors and spaced them out. The focus here instead of the big group isn't the diversity of colors, but the detailed look of each Skittle.
Last but not least, this is my favorite image. I love the vibrant color looks from not only the Jolly Rancher, but also from the water mixed with the other water colors. I think this was the best and favorite image.
