The paper is doing some comparison of different types of peanut butter and they needed a product shot of them all.  The page designers set up the items as they wanted and I figured out the lighting in the studio.  It was actually the first time I’d used actual studio lights before, well when there is more than one involved anyway.

There were three lights in the set up.  One on the right, one on the left, and one to the left side to kill the shadows from behind.

As always, when doing studio work with big lights I shoot in camera raw.
