Accurate Photography

 

A quick word about my photography, I make a massive effort to represent my work as accurately as possible. Glass is a tricky thing to photograph altogether, it’s highly reflective and the transparent colours often get washed out when light shines through them.

I take photos in natural daylight to best represent the colour of a piece and I use a macro lens on my camera to capture details. However, If you are on a desktop pc then a 2 cm bead is magnified around 10 times it’s actual size, that’s quite some magnification. Even on a standard mobile phone product photos are magnified about 1.5 -2 times actual size. it’s bit like looking through a microscope and it’s why so many celebrity photographs are edited and airbrushed so much, every pore and pimple is huge.

In reality this magnification has a double whammy effect. In the first place it magnifies teeny tiny details like specks of fine silver that are imperceptible to the naked eye but instead give a subtle shimmer. It also makes it really difficult to gauge the size and scale of a piece, what it would look like when you wear it, where it would sit on your neck and so on. To this end I usually have a photograph to show size and scale with the piece either being worn or held in my hand.

What I would say is if you are ever have any questions about my work please just drop me an email, I can take more photos, or whatever you need that will help.. Also customer satisfaction is top of my priorities, I really want you to be happy with your purchase, I have a 14 day, no questions asked, refund policy the only caveat being the piece is returned unworn and returned in it’s original state.

The photos below illustrate my point, a close up of one of my necklaces and a photo of it being worn. In the close up you can see the tiny sparkle of silver glitter, in the one of me wearing it the glitter is not visible.
