Professional Jewellery Photographer

Selling high end items relies on creating the perception of luxury. Customers will naturally be discerning when spending larger some of money. So, fashion items such as jewellery need to be as appealing as possible. We don’t want anything to distract them or potentially put them off. So, I take great care in producing high quality jewellery photography that attracts attention. I also retouch carefully to give the best possible finish to your jewellery. As with any form of product photography, it is vital to create desire in the buyer and to keep the feel of your brand. Therefore, when selling valuable gold, silver, gemstone and diamonds only professional images will suffice. I have completed numerous photoshoots of all kinds of items – rings, necklaces, earrings and more. This kind of close up or “macro” photography isn’t easy, so let me take away the stress.

Jewellery Photography for Catalogues & E-Commerce

I am experienced in creating images for printed catalogues and online retail. Below are just a few examples of the types of items I have worked with. My clients rely on these images to sell their products, so they trust me to create consistently high quality assets. Each jeweller has their own preferred styling to present the pieces and I am happy to work to a brief and brand guidelines. Whether you have necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, pendants or other items, I can photograph and retouch them to professional advertising standards.

Jewellery Lifestyle Photography Services

As well as images showing the product close up, lifestyle pictures can be a great asset when selling jewellery. Showing someone wearing the items makes it easier for the viewer to imagine themselves doing so. Jewellery lifestyle photography is about bringing some context to the products to give you another tool for your sales and marketing. I can help source models and make-up artists for lifestyle and other types of fashion shoots.

Creative Jewellery Photography for Advertising Images

It is important to consider the choice of background for your photos. While white may be the standard e-commerce format, it might not always be the best way to show off a particular item. Instead, darker backgrounds can add a further dimension of luxury as well as a contrast for the glistening surfaces. By being more inventive with your advertising images you can stand out as a creative brand with its own identity. Some like to use their brand colours in their jewellery photography in some form in the background. Others use the background to create lifestyle associations. You may like to be trendy and work with the Pantone colour of the year. Or, you could echo shapes or colours from the product. Props can help with more artistic images or you might introduce lifestyle associations with other items. There are many different concepts and possibilities to explore. These kind of images can draw on still life photography themes as well as fashion and other influences.

Banner images are a good way to show off related products and can be especially effective for seasonal themes such as Christmas or Valentines Day. They need to be styled for the banner format so that the composition works as a letterbox shape. Including related products or related lifestyle items can help to build up a scene.
