Re: Product Shots

Hitting the jewels directly with hard lights alone will come out disapointing, and is the common first-timer mistake for people just begining to try and shoot this kind of thing. You need some white boards reflecting onto the jewels as well to create the specular highlights and define the shape of the gems and the metals by how theey reflect the boards. You can test this by trying to shoot a metal pipe or a glass tumbler or bottle with and without the white card just out of camera shot.
