Do you want to learn all about photographing your cards for a website, blog or social media? This introductory "Photography for Cardmakers" video by fellow cardmaker and photographer Crystal Komara includes sections on:
1. Lighting - from natural light and lightbulbs to light boxes and professional studio lights
2. Cameras - what kind of equipment do you need - JUST a Smartphone!
3. Props & Staging - how to set up "photoshoots" with backgrounds and props
4. Editing - how to use both your camera's built in editing features and apps like Adobe Lightroom
Crystal has designed for companies like Whimsy Stamps, Birch Press Design, Newton's Nook, Spellbinders and more! Her card samples and photographs have been featured in "Making Cards & Papercraft" magazine.
"I wanted to create the kind of video I wish I had had when I started blogging and sharing my cards, so I hope this video is that for you! Please tag me @crystalkomara if you take "before" and "after" photos using something you have learned from my video. There is no greater measure of success to me than knowing I have helped another."
