We often get a jewelry product photography. The problem is, jewel got a highly-reflective material, so light-reflective has always been number 1 problem and common mistakes in photographing jewelry. Of course, we can retouch every photo that you needs in post production. But, for jewelry photos, it will take quite a long time to clear the reflected light on the object. We do it carefully, so it can help you create a neat and clean jewel product images. Better lighting setup can help you avoid this problem for your jewelry product images.
White balances can also affect your jewelry product photos. Not having the right setting is a bad news for you. You can set the white balance manually, but you’re recommended to simply setting your camera to “automatic” white balance mode; your camera will recognize the type of light source (natural sunlight, light bulb, flash, etc.) and capture colors from your jewelry product as close as how they actually appear in real life, and bring attention to them.

Other than that, the other common mistakes is when you choose the wrong camera settings, it will ruin your photos. If we are talking about selling things online, it’s really crucial to get accurate colors, detailed, and focus on your product images. Make sure you choose the best camera settings, what the customers see will affect their shopping experiences.
You need to know, the goal of shooting your jewel is to highlight the ‘star’ from it. Highlight the main diamond of your jewel. Using a macro lens is strongly recommended. Using auto-focus to avoid camera shake is also a choice, but you have to verify every single photo that you take. Before you end the photoshoot, make sure you got some good stock photos to be edited. Don’t forget to take consistent shoot and focus with precision to bring out all the beautiful, luxurious and high quality jewelry photos. But if you need a post production effort like photo editing to enhance your image, don’t be shy about it.
