❓ Photography Questions
How do I photograph gemstones?
Use natural indirect light near a window, white or neutral background, macro mode or lens, and stable surface or tripod. Avoid flash which creates harsh reflections. Multiple angles show the gemstone best.
What background is best for gemstone photos?
White or neutral backgrounds work best - they don't affect color perception. For dark stones, white background provides contrast. For light stones, light gray works well. Avoid busy or colored backgrounds.
