Little project/favour to ask!!

[Tyssen]

All you budding photographers out there.....

Im looking to get some decent pics of my jewellery, however I dont have a decent camera and atm cant afford to invest in one.

Im looking for someone (once I have a bulk load of stock together) to take some creative pics of my jewellery. Possibly outdoor's shots with the jewellery on stones etc Im looking for an organic/natural look.

Just wondered if anyone up this way fancied doing this for me, either free (cos Im a pikey) or Ill pay

Pay for my petrol and a wham bar and I'll come and take some pics for you lol

If you want some studio style shots. ie white background etc then I might be able to do it depending on time scale.

Could be interested in this too, with the use of props
What do you mean re timescale?? Im trying to get as many pieces together as I can atm so it might be a month or so till I want them all taking

Would you want paying, if so how muchio?

 

[UncleGrumpy]

I don't get out much at weekends, couple of squid for petrol and a decent cup of tea and i'll wander over.

Where are you chick????


I make a mean cuppa

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

What I meant by time scale is that I'm out of the country so much, I cannot guarantee when I could do it.

Don't worry about cost, It'll be good practice for me Just as long as it doesnt cost me anything

Bradford area - not by choice I might add, it's a hell/shithole of a place.

Ouh just checked out your website and your shots are well cool.

Thanks I've been wanting to do a bit more of this type of work anyway so it should be good for me too

Sorted then!!!

If I can get in touch once Ive got more stuff together would that be ok, would want to get as many pieces as poss together to make it worth doing if you know what I mean

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

No worries. I can't guarantee quality results mind! This is a learning curve for me too, but I'll have a good attempt at it

Before we go any further, it might be best to send me some photos of the kind of thing you have in mind, and I'll let you know if I could do it or not

Up by Glasgow lol :rasp:

 

[jenic]

I'd recommend getting one of those pop up back drop booth things. I spent a week at work with a point and shoot and one of those and took images of our entire stock.

The results were good imo, considering it was constant picture taking one after another, did a few hundred that week. One of most boring weeks of my life though.

We had a blue booth:

 

[Tyssen]

I think it would be abetter idea for someone closer to home to do them, just as it will be cheaper and easier for me.....any takers?

 

[LaurenF]

Isn't Gaz. in York? PM him, see if he fancies it...dunno if he's done anything like it before though.

LOL, Gaz isn't that posh, he's in Selby.

 

[Jungle_Jim]

could you not post them next day delivery, get them snapped then get them sent back to you. Means they can use their studio too.

some of mine

 

[Ian]

I wouldn't be able to do it for free as it's a 150 mile round-trip for me, but might be able to take the photos for you Laura.

Do you have any sample photos of your jewellery or the type of photos you're after? (I.e are they photos for an e-commerce website, or for advertising) I'll set something similar up at home first to try it out.

 

[Gaz.]

LOL, Gaz isn't that posh, he's in Selby.

It's better than Goole or Donny though

I'm of the opinion my shots would suck.

Is it balls, you know that's rubbish :clown:

 

[Gaz.]

I'd rather live here than Donny lol. I presume you refer to Selby, and not my opinion of my photography lol.

I do indeed mean Selby, this part of Donny int to bad.

 

[Gaz.]

Where abouts?

 

[Feirny]

Where abouts?

Near the Airport.

That's the nicer end aye. Anywho... back on topic.

I was thinking this last night, would save anyone messing about coming to my house and the jewellery would transport easily.

James, that Ghost shot is ace.

Thats cool but its not that thats the prob its the fact I have a pants camera

 

[Ian]

Laura I'll have a go at setting something up either today if I get chance, or if not then tomorrow and I'll send you a PM, see what you think.

If anyone else wants to do it in the meantime that's fine.
