Industrial grit meets bargain-bin shades styled as luxury eyewear.

I scoured dollar stores for the cheapest sunglasses and turned them into hero props. Using tight framing and a hard backlight, I sculpted deep shadows. And with an overhead soft fill I added highlights to the lenses. The result is a striking collection of images that are more premium campaign looking than a $2 impulse buy. Proof that killer light and composition can make anything sell.
