There are many tutorials of techniques, tricks and ideas to create .. but if you want to publish your creation on-line, you know how to photograph the reinforce what you have created?
So today I want to share with you some tricks I've learned using only the camera and a few other accessories easy to find.
start with the result:
As I took this picture?
First of all you need to know your camera, so it's important to read the instructions to prepare the camera for the best! One of the main things you need to set the camera on "macro" command that is focusing on near objects as small as jewelry creations or works in polymer clay, adjust the brightness and zoom to avoid because it could give much more blurry photos.
The ideal is natural light, so avoid dark colors and staggered, so as much as possible to avoid the flash.
as a basis to use a white sheet or a neutral background or theme with the object, the place is important so that the object is well lit by natural light.
While the photo is the most important thing is to stand still: if you do not have enough to take a stand the camera with two hands and possibly be supported in the arms so that hands do not move while shooting.
Even so the photos should be bright and clear, but a trick to use in more fast and above all this is economic:
a pan or aluminum foil placed in the opposite direction to the reflected light creates a slight which may decrease the shadow that creates the object at the same time illuminating the twilight zone.
Once you have chosen the photos you like you can also change through photo editing programs, I recommend Gimp, a free program, in Italian and very easy to use. On youtube you can then find simple tutorial for a basic retouch photos.
The end result is a clear picture, clear and faithful than the color of the object, it is certainly an excellent result and professional, but it's the least we can do to make the best viewing of your creation, just a blurry photo and dark to a buyer to change their minds, even if your object is actually of good quality!
If you have any doubts or questions ask me!
