I’m a huge fan of Sara’s work and recently contacted her to tell her that she was an inspiration. I too shoot cocktails professionally and photographers like Sara push me to do better. Great interview Doug, and thanks for sharing Sara.
Also, highly recommend Scott’s book.

In the future, please consider using italics on the your questions, not the lengthier answer as it is easier on the readers’ eyes.

Nice post and interview Doug. Great information.

Guess I’m going to have to be less lazy and start using RAW images on my camera.

What i realy like with these photos here is the light and the style. I`m totally clear about one thing, i really really need to get myself a decent camera! No matter how hard you try, if the camera is shit you will be limited and will not be able to use your creativity as you wish and that´s not fun!

Thanks for this post, it was very interesting! i`m one of those who is limited to the use of a very simple camera and on top of that i can only shoot indoors at night time and i have no lightbox yet..so i`m struggling with my pictures in poor light.

I also do freeze my glasses very often, about 10-15 minutes.I also like to sometimes just throw some drops of water at the glass before shooting. One example of that you can see at the “Demerara Delight” at the bottom of this post:http://www.amountainofcrushedice.com/?p=1168

Moreover i have for a while had in the back of my mind the use of several drinks for that effect instead of just one sometimes, but that also means i would have to imbibe them all..
