How Do I Avoid Glare When Photographing My Artwork?
Q: How Do I Avoid Glare When Photographing My Artwork?
A: Photographing your finished high gloss ArtResin pieces can be challenging due to glare and reflection. So we called upon our friend Geoff George, who is a professional photographer, to show us just how to do it.
1. Work in a controlled environment:
Taking a shot with both studio lights and ambient lighting ( daylight or from lamps/ceiling lights ) can cause glare and uneven lighting. Close curtains and blinds and adjust room lights as necessary in order to control all the light hitting your piece.
2. Set up your lighting:
To get an equal, even wash of light, set up two identical lights on either side of your artwork at 45 degree angles. Use the brightest lights you can and ensure both lights are the same in order to provide even amounts and even colour. Never use your camera's flash or light your work from the same angle as the camera or else you'll end up with a hot spots in your work.
3. Set up your artwork:
Whether you hang your artwork, lean it on a wall, or lay it on the floor, it's important that the camera is positioned at a perfectly parallel angle and that the lens is centred to the middle to avoid making your piece look distorted. Using a tripod locks the camera in and offers the most control.
4. Adjust your lights and your artwork for reflections:
Examine the way your artwork looks through the lens, identifying any unwanted sources of light and finding a way to minimize them. You may need to adjust the positioning of your lights or adjust your artwork
5. Take a few test shots:
Once you're happy with what you see, you're ready to shoot!
