Matt Sanderson Photography

My sister-in-law, Janet, designs the most beautiful jewellery and wanted some photos to show the pieces off. I’ve never really done much product-photography before but these came out well, I thought.

All were taken with a 5DmkII + 24-105 and the pieces were placed on a sheet of glass with wallpaper underneath the glass. They were lit using a 43″ umbrella to camera-right and a plain white reflector to camera-left. I found that if you moved the reflector, depending on the piece, you could easily modify the highlights.
