Hello Martin,
Congratulations on completing the course and thanks for sharing your final project with the community.
Your product photography shows a strong foundation, but there are a few areas where some adjustments could really elevate the overall quality. First, focus is a critical aspect of product photography, and it’s important that every detail is sharp, especially on key features like stones/gems. In some of your shots, there’s a slight softness that detracts from the professional look. I recommend being mindful of your aperture settings and possibly using manual focus to ensure sharpness where it matters most. Additionally, using a narrower depth of field could help isolate the product from the background, making it stand out more effectively. You have a nice composition, but the background could benefit from a bit more separation. Consider experimenting with aperture settings to blur the background slightly and direct attention more clearly to the product.
In terms of lighting, there are some strong points, but I noticed a few harsh shadows, especially when using a white background. This can be tricky, but soft, diffused lighting will help you achieve a more even illumination without harsh shadows or overexposed areas. Pay close attention to where your light sources are positioned, and perhaps add a fill light to help soften the shadows and give the product a more balanced look.
Overall, with a bit more attention to focus, background control, and lighting, you’ll be able to take your product photography to the next level! Keep experimenting and refining these details, and you’ll see a significant improvement in the final results.
Thanks again for sharing your project.
Best of luck,
Giulia
