This shoot was something completely new for me. Honestly, I was a little nervous stepping into it, because product photography has never really been my main genre. But at the same time, I was excited to challenge myself and explore a different side of photography.
The project was divided into three parts:
- Hookahs – the centerpiece: The soul of the Cocoyaya brand, beautifully designed hookahs that demanded all the attention. Capturing their form, shine, and elegance was my first big task.
- Chillams – the character: Each chillam carried its own vibe and personality. Shooting them felt like giving identity to the smaller yet essential parts that complete the experience.
- Premium Bags & Suitcase – the royalty: Finally, the premium leather bags and suitcase meant to carry the hookahs. These were about luxury, style, and protection, so the images had to reflect that same sense of exclusivity.
