Product Photography London Honey

Steve Benbow started with honeybees on his roof in London. He has now grown The London Honey Company to include honey from around the country, as well as Zambia and New Zealand. I had the chance to shoot four of their products in a really fun photoshoot.

Product Photography – Shooting The London Honey Company

I’m always looking for great honey. So working with The London Honey Company is a natural fit. They promise honey that they produce with their own hands, from their own bees. Their range of pure natural British Honey includes honey from Oxfordshire, Kent and Salisbury to name a few. In addition to that, they have a collection of infused honeys, honeycombs, and beeswax candles. Sold on their own or in duo, trios and larger boxes, I bet anyone can find something to their liking in their product range.

I got the chance to shoot:

  • The Borage Honey
  • The Kent Honey
  • The Shropshire Honey
  • The Kent Honey

I loved the variety of the honeys, as well as the different flavour profiles. Accordingly, as a photographer, I love shooting product ranges that offer diversity – and I can’t get enough of the play of light in the lighter honeys.

Honey in food – Blueberry crêpes

While beautiful on its own, honey really comes alive when used in food. So I jumped on the opportunity to style crêpes and really showcase the product. While there are few things that I wouldn’t add honey to, crêpes and sweet treats are always the first to come to mind. Not only do the colours complement and strengthen the product’s, they also look impossible to resist!

Moreover, I kept the colour scheme simple – using only orange, yellow and blue – to make sure that the honey got to shine.

It was a day of mess and fun. Personally, there are few things that I like more than spending a day covered in excellent honey. The London Honey Company definitely fulfils its promise of extraordinary British honey.

The nitty gritty

The shoot took place at my London studio, using products sent over by The London Honey Company.

If you want to see more of my work, have a look at my portfolio or my shoot for Scarpetta Pasta, also in my studio.
