The setup behind the shelf

Every one of the 34 teas is photographed the same way in this shop: a single soft circular light halo behind a plain cup of the tea on a matte field. The frame keeps reverent. What changes between teas is the tea, not the treatment — loose tea in the frame carries the difference. The set was built to work as iconic, devotional premium. Nothing in these frames is a stock photograph: the tin is our own 100 g tin, printed with our own labels, and the tea inside it is the tea being sold. One visual language across a whole catalogue is harder than one striking image, and it is the part that makes a shelf look like a brand.
