Thanks all for your superb suggestions! I agree on everything you guys had to say and I will keep it in mind for next time..
Agreed on the styling, its just too much imo also, but it was the way the client wanted it as its his showroom.
Thanks for the tips re the black card to kill the oven reflections.
Yes, I will remember to remove that darn flash!
As its a showroom the ceilings are very low, lower than usual, but agreed that they are too low.
I had a look at all your websites and I must say I got good advice from superb photographers...Thanks again!
