Since we've been making our own sterling silver jewelry and posting it on our website, of course, we need good pics for our customers to view. It's one of the most important aspects of how your product is perceived by your prospective customers. That old saying is never truer in this case: a picture is worth a thousand words!

1) In order to ensure your images are sharp, make sure you know how to focus your camera.

2) Use a tripod.

3) Set the aperture to the highest number possible.

4) Use soft lighting. Your camera's built-in flash will rarely give good results for product photography.

5) Use imaging software. Even inexpensive software like Photoshop Elements™ can make product photography much easier. Imaging software allows you to crop an image, resize it, adjust the exposure, and even sharpen the image less than 60 seconds.

I hope this helps a little bit in your quest to take great jewelry photos. If you have any questions regarding this, please see our website, http://www.jandmjewelrydesign.com/, and go to our CUSTOMER SERVICE page and ask us anything you wish. We'll be glad to try and help!
