It would be a perfect world if everything always turned out right the first time, but of course, it’s not! For the jewelry business, that means that I don’t always take photos with the right settings the first time around. So there will always be a few reshoots here and there. For example, here is a “before” and “after” of my Prehnite Cluster necklace I just reshot:
Before
After
I’m definitely liking the colors in the “after” shots much better.
Sometimes I even pull out older pieces and then get this desire to redo or embellish them even more. This is one of those pieces that brings out that feeling in me.
Anyone else ever feel the same? If you have and you’ve redone a piece, I’d love to see before and after pictures. I think it would be interesting to compare…
I like the second photos better, too. I do sometimes get the urge to redo pieces. I did it recently, in fact. I even posted it on my blog: http://thisgirlbeads.blogspot.com/2008/05/dragonfly-girl.html.
The new shots are fantastic!! I especially like the one hanging up with the beautiful bokeh!!
Oh, yeah! I totally understand what you mean. There’s a bunch of pieces from last year (before I settled on my current style) that I’d love to redo. Maybe I’ll take a page out of your book and just do it!!
The redo shots are so clear and bright. Are you using a light box?
