Ok so this shot took a little bit of work. Its a combination of two images. As you can see in the image below I put the box on a small coffee table. One Speedlite 430 EX II was placed front left to the camera. I bounced the flash to the right and off the angled ceiling to give it a downward light.

I then cut a hole in the backside of the box(not visible to camera). I set the on camera timer to 10 seconds and rushed to the backside of the box to pose. A few trys later and I got one that was usable.

Last, I brought the image into photoshop. I cropped myself out of one image and into the other. I then began the process of cloning everything but the box and drawers. I sharpened everything up a bit and added some more shadowing.

As you can see the finished product is quite a bit different. It was a long process but definitely not hard. Go out and give it a try and thanks for reading!
