Getting unwanted glare from light

[WideAperture]

Hello Peeps! I'm trying to take some photos for a new local liquor brand but I keep getting the glare/reflection of the lights.

Even when I cut off all the lights in the room and take the photo, I still get the annoying glare of the flash in the glass. I'm sure there's something simple that I'm missing. How do I avoid this?

Thanks!

welcome to one of the hardest types of photography to master: shooting glass bottles.

right off the bat you need to need to diffuse your lights behind a large diffusion panel.


I've always liked this video that breaks it down:

Two polarizers. One on the flash, the other on the camera lens.
