Jewellery Styling

Necklaces can be photographed on a flat surface and styled into a pleasing neck shape.
Headpieces often benefit from a bird’s-eye view and careful angling to capture the best details.

Tiffany-style jewellery photography

High end jewellery warrants the Tiffany style of jewellery photography! To achieve the ultra-polished look – stylistically it looks like a cross between photography and technical drawing – requires extra studio time and a HUGE amount of extra post-production (Photoshop) time compared with the jewellery packshots above.

Tiffany style jewellery photography
The Tiffany style has a lot of sparkle, a shadow/reflection and slightly blue tint. All the tiny imperfections in the jewellery are painted out in post-production to achieve the ultra-smooth, almost technically drawn look.Tiffany style jewellery photographyWe have to charge a lot more for Tiffany style photography to cover the time involved, so we only recommend it for high value jewellery – please be clear from the outset if you want a Tiffany treatment. You will also need to factor in the cost of insurance and security for high value jewellery whilst it is on the photoshoot.
