Bead-embroidery maven Robin Atkins is sharing first-rate tips for shooting and editing photos of beadwork. Tip number one:
Beads are shiny objects, which reflect light, especially faceted beads. Therefore, almost all direct lighting yields terrible results. I take most of my pictures outside on days when there are high clouds and the sun is overcast.
Put together the rest of her tips, and you have a quick online course that will improve your beading photos instantly. Go get all the details from Robin.
