Hi Jeff - It's interesting how we all have our own distinct style and this has your name written all over it. These are perfect record shots. By this I mean:

1. They are a true and accurate record of the object
2. Quality is excellent with good detail throughout
3. No deep shadows or highlights obscuring any part of the object

So they fit the purpose and once you have the set-up it will be easier and less time consuming to produce good quality images. The only downside to this type of work is that it lacks a degree of glamour. In my case, it is a labour of love to produce dramatic and artistic images and so time consuming that I just don’t do much of it any more. Instead, I revert to a point and shoot and simple set-up when I need images without too much fuss. Maybe when you have all the images you need and some time to spare you will push your photographic boundaries beyond the limit and get one very different image to go with the set. In this case might I suggest using just one light and accept areas in shadow (they create the drama).
