5 Proven Jewellery Photography Tips from Our Sydney Experts

1. Lighting Makes All the Difference

Great jewellery photography starts with professional lighting. At our Sydney studio, we use diffused, soft-box lighting with reflector boards to minimise shadows and enhance the brilliance of gold and diamond jewellery. This creates clean, elegant images ready for any platform - from Shopify to Vogue.

2. Use Clean, Neutral Backgrounds for E-commerce

Our eCommerce product shoots use high-key white or neutral grey backgrounds to ensure your jewellery pieces remain the focus. For editorial campaigns, we offer custom-styled backdrops and props to match your brand's aesthetic.

3. Capture Details with Macro Lenses

Jewellery requires a close-up approach. We use macro lenses to highlight key features like stone clarity, gold texture, and precision setting. Every prong, clasp, and diamond facet is captured with razor-sharp focus.

4. Focus Stacking for Precision

To ensure the entire item is in focus, we use focus stacking - a technique that layers multiple focal points into one crisp image. This is especially useful for diamond rings, gold chains, and delicate handcrafted pieces.

5. Expert Retouching Adds the Final Polish

Our in-house post-production team retouches every image with precision - adjusting colour tones, removing imperfections, and refining reflections. The final result? Jewellery images that sparkle with clarity, luxury, and brand consistency.
