When Hearts Invade the Photo Studio
Posted by Vivian Vassar on 14th Feb 2018
I was in the photo studio today setting up for a product shoot with vintage jewelry that just came in. I use a photo cube with side and top lighting for small items like jewelry. The cube is easy to put up, take down, and is portable which is a plus. So, I placed the vintage bead necklaces on the platform, inside the cube, and moved them around to show them to their best advantage. Next thing you know, I am shaping them into hearts. Then it hits me. Today is Valentine's Day ! no wonder hearts are on my mind :)
So, do I keep going ? Is every necklace going to be heart shaped ? Or am I going a little crazy with the valentine theme....
Here's some examples of the fun I had with the necklaces. Some beads flow right into a heart shape but others are a little harder. No matter how I tried, I couldn't get the Victorian Jet Bead Necklace in the top right corner to lie straight. It had a mind of it's own. I'm going to use this heart theme again the next time I photograph necklaces. They look cute.
