Step into the captivating realm of the Brixton Candle Company through my lens, where fragrances are more than just scents—they’re stories waiting to be told. This photoshoot for their signature candle collections — Market Row, Baiana, Eritrea Nights, Mama Polenta, and Cerassie — was a deep dive into their dedication to creating sensory experiences. Let me take you on a visual tour, showcasing how the raw ingredients of these candles became the stars of each shot.
Market Row: Elegance Captured
In capturing Market Row, I aimed to embody the essence of its sophisticated blend of warm musk, cedarwood, and patchouli. The camera was my tool to translate the nuanced dance of vanilla and birch tar middle notes with sweet orange and nutmeg base notes into a visual symphony. The resulting images are a testament to the fragrance’s elegant and warm spirit.
Baiana: Tropical Hues in Focus
The vibrant spirit of Baiana called for a palette of vivid colors and dynamic compositions. With pineapple cubes and coconut leading the charge, accented by lemon and soft vanilla against a backdrop of apple and fresh mint, my photographs sing with the tropical harmony this scent so boldly announces.
Eritrea Nights: Velvety Darkness Visualized
The opulent Eritrea Nights, with its coffee and walnut heart, provided a rich canvas. My camera flirted with shadows and light, embracing the middle notes of vanilla and tea tree against the cocoa and peppermint base, culminating in images that embody the scent’s warm and inviting mystery.
Mama Polenta: A Visual Homage to Comfort
With Mama Polenta, it was all about bringing forth the homeliness of vanilla and nutmeg, complemented by the powerful presence of cloves. The boldness of basil and black pepper base notes was a challenge I welcomed, crafting images that resonate with the comfort and tradition this fragrance stands for.
Cerassie: Freshness Through the Lens
The fresh essence of Cerassie, with Clary sage and thyme at its forefront, inspired me to create photographs that breathe life. The combination of bay rum and patchouli with basil and vanilla base notes allowed me to weave a story of rejuvenation and natural calm.
Seasonal Splendor: Christmas Edition Candles
Not forgetting the festive season, I focused on the special Christmas editions: Cracking Cranberry Festive Candle and Frankincense and Myrrh festive candle. Their rich, spicy aromas were a joy to photograph, adding a touch of holiday magic to my portfolio.
This creative journey with Brixton Candle Company was more than just a photoshoot—it was an exploration of how fragrance can be translated into imagery.
