I know from time to time, threads pop up on how to take good and accurate photos of our babies. These threads have ranged from the highly technical to more general discussions of how to pose stones to show them to best advantage. Jessi Clark-White of Distinction Jewelry just published a great intro piece on gemstone photography geared to sellers. With her permission it is reprinted here because it is valuable and relevant to anyone wanting good photos. Thanks, Jessi! :))

The William Holland School of Lapidary Arts regularly has a gem and lapidary photography course. The last one for the year is this week and is by Ron Gibbs. So if you feel you want hands on help...
