Jewelry Photography A Challenging Skill to Master

• Photographing products for display on e-commerce
  websites is pretty common. Product photography is
  a skill that needs to be learnt and acquired
  through practice. Of all the categories of
  products usually displayed on e-commerce
  websites, there is one category that is
  notoriously difficult to capture with cameras
  jewelry. Heres why. First, sometimes the pieces
  of jewelry and at other times the gems embedded
  therein are too small to photograph perfectly.
  Secondly, these gems are highly reflective, due
  to which they appear less vibrant in photos than
  they do in reality. All this makes the job of a
  jewelry photographer highly challenging. However,
  armed with the knowledge of proper equipment,
  anyone can shoot jewelry items with accuracy and
  consistency. Here is the basic guide to using the
  right equipment for jewelry photography.

Equipping yourself with the right equipment for
jewelry photoshoot

• Obtaining the best jewelry shots calls for having
  the right equipment. Heres a list of some of the
  most important equipment you need for jewelry
  photography.
• Camera
• Contrary to popular belief, there is no best
  camera for shooting jewelry products. What is
  required to come up with strikingly appealing
  jewelry photos is the understanding of what kind
  of results you wish to achieve. Sometimes, even a
  decent smartphone camera (Apples or Androids)
  can get you very impressive results.
• Lenses
• As already stated that the gems used in jewelry
  products are too small and contain a lot of
  intricate detail work. This requires the use of a
  decent macro lens so that close-up shots of the
  gem(s) having ample detailing can be taken.

Equipping yourself with the right equipment for
jewelry photoshoot

• Lighting
• A carefully selected lighting source that exudes
  ample amount of light can create an amazing depth
  of field. If you plan to make use of natural
  light to shoot your jewelry items, you may place
  the jewelry piece near the window. However, if
  your plan is to have artificial lighting for the
  shoot, you will need a proper setup, which most
  commonly, includes a lightbox, light tent, camera
  flash, etc.
• Tripod
• To avoid clicking blurry and shaky photographs
  (which is the case when you choose to click
  pictures with the camera held in your hand), it
  is a must to have a decent tripod. The use of a
  good tripod will result in the camera being
  absolutely stable and this will ultimately help
  achieve clearer photos.

Equipping yourself with the right equipment for
jewelry photoshoot

• White background
• A white background helps capture all the
  critical details of jewelry items by removing
  unwanted shadows. This lends a professional look
  to your jewelry products, which, in turn, helps
  establish credibility and trust with customers.
• Hire a professional photography team
• If you own a jewelry store and would like to
  capture stunning jewelry photographs, you should
  contemplate hiring a Professional Jewelry
  Photographer. As for the cost it would incur, it
  should not come across as a surprise that jewelry
  photography pricing is always higher than product
  photography pricing. To get the most impressive
  jewelry shots at charges so reasonable that
  theyre almost similar to product photography
  pricing, you may contact EtherArts Photography
