Gone Fishin’

The owner of Blue Wave Jewelry contacted me recently to get some of their tungsten rings photographed. They sent over these three bands, which are goldtone with various types of fish engraved around the outside. Primarily a product shot, I photographed these face-on on a white background with a soft shadow beneath them. I made sure the camera was fixed at the same angle in every shot so that there was consistency across the images, which is especially important in e-commerce where you’re looking at images tiled next to each other.

2016 has been an absolute whirlwind so far. I’ve taken on several new clients, and am immensely enjoying each one. I’ve gotten about 6 weeks behind on my posts, so in the midst of the chaos, I wanted to take a minute to get at least one project updated here!

Megan Goldkamp Jewelry is not one of my new clients; I’ve been taking photos for her Etsy store since last year. Goldkamp’s specialty is this lovely sentimental jewelry that’s engraved with your own (or a loved one’s) handwriting. In addition to the uniqueness of the idea, I also really like the matte finish she uses, and appreciate the way she keeps the designs simple to allow the engraving to take the spotlight.
