New jewelry photography with a "green" twist

I am posting a few photos that i thought were of interest that i recently completed for a jewelry designer based in Santa Monica, CA
Lisa Marie Todd
The goal was to create some bold, contemporary images that reflected the "nature" inspired designs of the designer for the intro to her new website http://www.marietodd.com/

I ended up shooting the natural elements like eucalyptus branches, fresh leaves and interesting sprigs to use as elements in the compositions. I couldn't find what i was looking for at the florist and plant shops,
i just thought the things they had to offer were too generic or not interesting enough.
In the end i decided to look in my own neighborhood in Brooklyn.


I was pleasantly surprised that even in this semi urban landscape i found some really amazing things, i never thought of my neighborhood as being so plant filled and green, but there was quite a bit to choose from.
It just goes to show you that you never know where you can find your best props, sometimes what you are looking for is right outside your door.
