Hi, hoping someone can help me with this. I'm a portrait photographer but just took some product shots of this lamp for a designer and unfortunately, the whole studio and all my lights are reflected in it! Anyone know of a photoshop process I can use to get rid of the hot lights/reflection but not lose the look of the lamp. Photo can be found at //www.herrickphoto.co.uk/lamp.html
Thanks for any and all help!

Are you using any diffusing at all? you may want to use a big soft box or something.

Are you looking for suggestions on a reshoot, or to fix what you already have?

If reshooting, in addition to the softbox suggestion, use a circular polarizer to knock most of those reflections out.

This stuff works really nicely to cut out reflections as well. You have to wipe it off afterwards, but not a big deal.

edit: oops, forgot the linky.
