Great advice. Thank you! I’ve been taking photos “in the wild”. My first attempts have had mixed results. I’ll definitely check out FotoFuze for my next batch.

Thanks so much! I’ve recently given up my jewelry display at a local yoga studio (can’t keep up without quitting my day job) and I’ll need to start a website or sell on Etsy. The photography piece is so intimidating to me, so I can’t thank you enough for sharing your experience!

Thanks for the kind words! I rent out the little cottage. It is attached to an older office building. I only live 2 miles away so my commute is perfect!

I have just finished reading & watching videos on using my IPhone to take better photographs of my jewelry. Now I’m more familiar with all the features on the IPhone. I also got a 24” folding white box but without a light. I took it outside under my covered patio to photograph. That along with better editing helped me create much better, more professional photos. Thanks for the tips. I just created an account on fotofuze!

Really appreciate the tips. Thank you.
Adorable little cottage. Is it your home & studio, or a studio/shop? It’s really cute.

Janine, thanks for the photography tips! Your store front looks charming! If you don’t mind me asking …. do you live in the same house that you sell ? The reason I am asking is that I have a similar house except that it also has an enclosed front porch. My house is a very small, 2 bedroom, bungalow. I do craft shows, Jewelry Shows for other people, and twice a year an “open house” for my friends, at MY house. I have no sign out front, but maybe someday I will. Thanks!

How inviting is your design shop. I have an additional tip, YouTube has some excellent diy light box tutorials you can make yourself. Thanks for all your tips. I use photoshop for editing, but it’s not for everyone. I’ll check out fotofuze. Thanks!

Hi Janine! Thanks for the recommending fotofuze, it’s a life saver! I’ve been using snapseed which takes time to edit the photos, but fotofuze is perfect! And you have a lovely shopfront btw…

Great tips, Janine! And I love your charming jewelry cottage – a beautiful place to create and invite your customers in! Are you still teaching jewelry classes there too?
