Product Photography

Here are some pictures of kate_schaefer's bridal hats. I'm not quite as satisfied with them as the previous set, but they're still fairly decent.;>

No, of course we didn't have the photo sessions in the basement. I'm saying I don't want black velvet near the whitework at any time in the life cycle of the object while I have control of it, and necessarily the black velvet would be adjacent to the whitework if it were used as the background. I mentioned my work area obsessiveness merely as illustration of how careful I try to be.

Ah, I see. Well, each her own and all that. In that case you might consider a matte dark ground fabric that doesn't lint -- microfiber, ultrasuede, or even real suede. You just aren't doing the presentation of your work any favors by shooting it against a fabric with the same sheen and value as the hats themselves. Ideally product photography should show the product to best possible advantage.
