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 http://www.herrickphoto.co.uk/lamp.html
Thanks for any and all help!

There's no easy and automated way to fix this problem, really. You're best off putting the lamp inside an enclosed shooting tent and redoing it. The only real way to fix this issue now is to go in and manually paint over all the visible reflections, which is both very time-consuming and difficult to do convincingly.
