What was your greatest challenge in this most up-to-date shoot?

The most significant challenge in shooting jewellery is the focal issue. Simply because fine jewelry pieces are so little, the minute you present extra than just fingers, upper body, or face, you can eliminate the jewelry. In a style shoot, I can pull back 50 feet and you can see the total setting additionally the outfits and particulars and extras. With jewelry, we can not transfer again considerably. Our canvas is lessened to a compact portion of a person’s body.

And with Gem Breakfast, we want to clearly show the surroundings, but nonetheless continue to keep rings as the focal stage.
