    Default Jewellery Photographer

    I am looking for a professional jewellery photographer for a new collection in the making, ready in the end of spring (an some of my older pieces)
    c 15 - 20 jewellery. I live in Kent/London boarder, ideally Central or East London.
    Any recommendations or weblinks would be appreciated.

    Regards

    Kristina

    There are obviously plenty around, but I doubt you will get a recommendation here Krystina, as most of us take our own.
    All you can do is browse their web sites and approach one whose work you fancy.

    I've tried using a professional photographer, which was a waste of time and money and my jewellery came back needing cleaning, so like Dennis has said, most of us on here take our own photos. Having said that its incredibly time consuming, drives you mad when things keep moving, but you get to have exactly what you want in the end. Good luck.

    Agree. When I was persuaded to use a pro all the pearls came back a sepia brown colour. complete waste of time. Learn to photograph your own stuff. It takes time, experimentation, creative thought and stubborn perseverance but the effort is worth it..eventually

    Stubborn perseverance, how did you know that’s my middle names! I’ve come to the conclusion it’s how I get most things achieved these days

    If you don't wish to set up yourself there are Photographers that specialise in jewellery photography, normally listed as "Product Photography" ask to see examples of what they have/can produce, they are not usually in the lower price range so expect to pay a premium.
