Every photographer, no matter how much experienced he
is, often come across the burning need for jewelry image editing. Despite of
taking care of finest details while shooting, the image which comes out is not
flawless to upload unedited. The background is never identical on all the
product images, a lot of unwanted reflections makes is less explanatory, dust
& scratches on stones and metal parts, lack of perfect shine and
manufacturing faults are the 5 main reasons, you opt for searching an
experienced Jewelry Retouching company.
Here is some explanations of these 5 important reasons
for Jewelry images editing.
1- Need for White Background
Even if you work using a lightbox
or bigger light sources, the output image doesn’t have identical background (
most commonly white ) because of different exposure settings used and shifts in
light positions.
Creating clipping path or
background removal of the main object
and placing on the monotone background,
greatly enhance its saleability and add to the look of the selling
website or catalogue.
2. Unwanted Reflections
While
photographing a super metallic jewelry
piece, every photographer use large light sources/ light boxes , white or black
reflectors, but when you take a look at the final shot image, you may find a
lot of unwanted reflections, weird highlights or black reflections. These flaws
may temper the actual look of the product, so this is the second reason you
often come across the need for experienced jewelry retouchers.
3. Micro Dust Particles
Most of the
jewelry pieces are small in size so they are usually photographed using macro
lenses upto 125mm focal length, this enhances the details of jewelry , but those damn dust particles,
which seems invisible to the naked eye, gets enhanced too. They are truly
annoying and you want them to be removed before delivering them to your
clients. Removing these dust particles, hairs and thumb impressions involves an
extensive photoshop editing .This is
how, you google for a reliable retouching company to produce the flawless images.
4. Lack of metallic shine while photographing
To eradicate unwanted reflections,
you may use small paper reflectors which on one hand removes those weird
reflections but creates a matt effect on the other hand. An experience photo retoucher , knows well, how to bring that metallic shine
back into the picture.
5. Rectifying broken metal/diamond parts
The jewelry
pieces are usually very expensive and manufactured with utmost care to be
flawless. We as an experienced retouching company, have always observed broken
stones or metal carving which has some broken or distorted pieces. These needs
to be fixed up before showcasing to the
client. Replicating the intact parts of
the object on to the torn / broken parts, works well to produce flawless image.
We believe
the photographer along with a good retoucher, can work in coordination to
produce the iconic jewelry images.
