For years I have been messing around, trying to make professional looking jewelry pictures myself. That is so incredibly difficult I had had almost given up, but after doing some study I wanted to give it one last try. Finally I got a result I am happy with, now all I have to do is study some photoshop and then I am good to go. Yihaa! We now have a mini-equipment in our studio, so after each new design we can easily take pictures.

And here are the first try-outs: Two new pairs of earrings from my Floris collection A variation on my Dao-rings at the request of a customer. Today, I have attempted for the first time to close a setting myself and it turned out very well, that tastes like more! Up to now, that work was done by a professional setter. A first image from my NOBO collection.

What a productive day, maybe my son should wake me up at 5.50h more often...on second thought, forget I just said that!

The next task will be to take pictures of all the new pieces from the past 6 months. Then I will do a huge cleaning of the webshop and put all the new jewelry online. I hope to get that finished by the end of March.

Now I need some food, a glass of wine and I won't come out of the couch for the rest of the evening!!
