I have the best guy ever. For my birthday he got me a super nice printer and for Christmas he got me a little pop-up photo-takey kit. I've had my printer for a while and I got the photo kit today. With all of the Etsy and everything I've been doing I really needed both of those things. Like, BAD. LOL
I'm ok with most of my photos, but I was having to take them outside - in certain weather, at certain times of day, in certain places, and if I missed out... well, I had to use photos that weren't great, or that looked wayyy different than the others, and blegh. With my bones hurting and winter coming I was NOT looking forward to having to deal with outdoors if I didn't want to.
These are my first photos using the kit. I'm still trying to figure it out, but I think this is gonna be awesome. I took these while sitting in a chair in my bedroom - not huddled outside in the dirt fighting the bugs and trying to get a decent shot.
The only thing I'm not a fan of is how clinical and white they look. I know that most product photography is done on clean backgrounds, but this is boring as shit to me and SO NOT MY STYLE. I think I need to use some props or something. I will be digging around in my room to see if I can come up with anything super cool. 😃
If anyone has tips for me feel free to leave them here. I see my bedroom lights reflecting in the rings, so I guess next time I will need to turn them off. I know that the focus is off a little, but I usually photograph one thing at a time, so ignore that. Other than that, I don't know why the backgrounds aren't PERFECTLY white (or if they even are supposed to be without shooping), so if I'm doing something wrong, tell me.
P. S. Dinosaur rings. I can do necklaces and earrings, too. 😃
