Submit Your Best "Styled" Photograph

This was taken for an author's website. The backdrop is linen, pressed an re-wrinkled to match the aesthetic, while the items were propped up as needed during the shoot. For the drink, it's an apple cider mixed to give a light bourbon coloration in the available lighting. Speaking of the lighting, overhead flash was used for the keylight, sunlight through a diffused window for the backlight, and a reflector for the fill and to help blend the lighting temps. Exposure was dropped in post to give a more low-key lighting while still maintaining good colors and contrast.
