Tips for Making Your Diamond Jewelry Look Gorgeous in Photographs

Perhaps you want to share a photo of your diamond jewelry on your blog, post it on a message board or show it to a friend online? Or maybe you are selling your diamond jewelry and you need photos to put on the listing that make it look as beautiful as possible. For whatever reason you are photographing your Diamond Jewelry, here are some tips that will help you get the right shot.

Diamond Jewelry Photography Tips

• First of all, clean your diamond jewelry first so that it will look as perfect and sparkling as possible.
• Read through your camera’s manual and figure out how to turn it onto “spot focus mode”. This will allow you to precisely focus on a small item of diamond jewelry.
• Setting up a tripod is essential to getting the perfect shot, as it is almost impossible to hold your hand still enough.
• Usually soft lighting will work best with diamond jewelry. Turn off the flash, as it will not light up the diamond properly and it will cause harsh shadows.
• Try photographing the jewelry piece from a number of different angles first so that you can see what looks the most appealing.
• Don’t worry about taking too many photos, you can always go through them and choose the best later.
• In some of your photos, you might see the reflection of the camera lens in the shiny gold surfaces of your diamond jewelry. To avoid this, position the camera so that it is directly in front of the diamond and will not be reflected in the gold part of the ring.

Photographing Diamond Jewelry can be tricky, so follow these tips so that you can achieve the best results.
