Studio time that’s NOT fun

I spent the morning taking photos of my jewelry– I’ll be selling that later on when I have more pieces. I discovered that I really don’t like photographing my own work. I love my camera, I love getting a great nature shot or interesting scene, and I love editing photos I’ve taken. But staging, lighting, trying to get the best picture without distortion– ugh! If I could afford it, I would DEFINITELY hire a professional to do that for me. Thank God for Picasa, or none of them would have come out at all. It appears I really don’t know what I’m doing.

Now, you want to see someone who knows how to stage a photo, take a look at Little Byrd Vintage on Etsy. Her photos of her merchandise are so beautiful, she should sell them as well. I’m all envy. Oh, and she has some really beautiful vintage merchandise, too. And no, she didn’t pay me to say that.
