A powered-off screen is a black mirror that reflects the whole studio; a powered-on one produces moiré and blown highlights. Glossy black housings disappear into the background unless their shape is drawn with deliberately placed reflections. And the details buyers zoom into before purchasing, the ports, hinges, textures and grilles, demand real macro optics and technique. These are solved problems in a controlled studio. Screens are lit for the body and composited cleanly so both read perfectly. Dark gloss and brushed metal are shaped with long, placed highlights. Detail work is shot on a dedicated 100mm macro lens, with focus stacking where a port cluster or texture needs to be sharp front to back. Everything runs through a colour-managed pipeline, so Midnight Blue and Graphite are distinguishable in the photographs and both match the device in the box. Electronics brands rarely shoot one device; they shoot a line, with variants, colourways and accessories that must look like one family. Our tethered, calibrated workflow at the Pallikaranai studio is built for exactly that consistency, and deliverables arrive organised by SKU in every format your marketplace listings, website and launch materials need. Pre-launch samples are handled with appropriate care and confidentiality. ## What this covers * **Devices & Gadgets** - Phones, audio, wearables and appliances, lit to show form and finish. * **Screens & Displays** - Clean screen compositing — no moiré, no reflections, no dim grey panels. * **Macro & Detail** - Ports, buttons, hinges, textures and grilles, focus-stacked where needed. * **Components & Exploded Views** - Technical and exploded-view photography for listings, manuals and decks. ## Why ColoursAlive * **Screens done properly.** Device bodies and screen content are captured separately and composited, so the display reads bright, sharp and reflection-free while the housing stays correctly lit. It is the standard professional approach, and its absence is easy to spot in a portfolio. * **Dark, glossy and metallic surfaces.** Glossy black only becomes visible through what reflects in it, so we draw each device's shape with placed highlights. Brushed and anodised metals are lit with their grain direction in mind, so finishes read accurately. * **Macro detail buyers actually zoom into.** Detail shots are made on a dedicated 100mm macro lens, with focus stacking for deep subjects. Port selections, textures and build details render sharply, which is where purchase decisions get made in this category. * **Consistency across your product line.** Variants, colourways and accessories are shot to identical framing, lighting logic and colour treatment, reviewed tethered at full resolution as we go. The catalogue looks like one brand, this year and next. ## How it works 1. **Brief & Quote.** Send us your device list, colourways and destinations for the images.

The body gets proper product lighting; the screen content is added cleanly at full brightness and sharpness. The final image shows both perfectly, which is not achievable in a single casual exposure. **Can you shoot pre-launch or confidential hardware?** Yes. Samples are handled with appropriate care, access to them is limited to the people working on the shoot, and confidentiality agreements are no obstacle. **We have multiple colourways. Will they photograph accurately?** That is precisely what a colour-managed pipeline is for. Calibrated capture and a calibrated edit keep adjacent colourways distinguishable and true to the physical devices. **Do you do exploded-view and component photography?** Yes, it is a speciality. Exploded views and component photography serve listings, manuals, packaging and investor decks, and are planned as their own setups within the shoot. **How is electronics photography priced?** By project, based on device count, the setups needed (screens, macro detail, exploded views) and surface complexity. Glossy and reflective housings involve more set work and are quoted accordingly.
