Thank you so much Connie!!! Yeah, these are quite important factors!!! So many little details that add up in the end and also take so much time to learn 😅
Thank you sooo much for this video Myrto! These infos are really helpful for someone like me who have zero knowledge when it comes to taking photos of my artwork. I always set my phone camera to auto...now I must learn how to use the 'manual' instead of relying on auto mode. You're a darling...thank you beautiful one!!
Oh wow, thank you so much for watching Joyce!!!! Always happy to help! I used to be like that too, didn't know much about it but over time found the information I needed! Always a lot more to learn but I think this is a nice base to start from! So happy you did find it useful!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi, thank you for good advice! 🌷 Which camera are you using? I’ve tried scanning my acrylic paintings but it ends up being completely different and then it’s very hard to edit it properly. Thank you!
@@sheylaart Hello, thank you so much for watching!!! I was using my phone camera, but a very good one that could shoot in Raw in very high quality. I've recently bought a scanner and now have experience with both though! I would say that this is a problem you might have either way, the editing is part of the process and depending on the colors you have used, sometimes it can indeed be very hard to balance it all out! If you decide to try photographing, make sure that your lighting is daylight bulbs, but also that the settings in your camera are also set for daylight! It gets easier with practice though, you'll slowly learn what needs fixing and it's usually similar changes every time! I hope it helpes, I wish I could be of more help!
Thank you so much Loren!!!! It really isn't worth doing what I did, instead of getting a real phone mount to be fair! Too much trouble and not the best solution, I'm just using it for as long as it works and then I'll get a better one too! If you look for overhead arm phone holders you'll see they're truly cheap! 🤷♀️
Very informative ! I am so nervous as a beginner with this. Once you get the photographs, do you print them yourself or do you send them somewhere specific to be printed !?
Thank you so much for watching! Honestly, any daylight bulb will do, just try to have one on each side and a bit further away so that the light is evenly spread. You could use desk lamps if you have them and replace the bulbs with daylight, then see how you can create a setup that will work best!
Thank you so much Mitchell!!! It's a long story but that's actually a microphone mount that I adjusted to hold my phone 😅 You can find proper ones on Amazon though for like 10-15 dollars if you look for smartphone mounts or overhead arm phone holders!
Thank you so much for watching!!! So happy it was useful!!! I have a Huawei Mate 10 Pro, it's 2 years old now but still good enough for that! I'm sure there are better options out there too at the moment! It's important to be able to shoot in RAW format so keep that in mind 😊 I use photoshop for editing, I can't say if there are alternatives for editing RAW files unfortunately, but it can't be done with basic photo editing programs for sure! I wish I could help more 😐
@@CarlosRibeiroArtist That's always the best way to go, see what works best for you and the specific phone! I've only tried Redbubble and Fine Art America and didn't have any luck with either to be honest, but I think it depends a lot on the kind of art you're creating and how much you can market yourself. I know others have better luck with them, and getting a printer can be expensive so I'd suggest you give it a go before changing your plans 🤷♀️

This was very informative. Thank you, Myrto! I am also interested in your phone mount maker.💗

Thank you so much!!! I can't believe I missed your comment, I just now saw it, I apologise! I print them myself, I have a Epson P600 printer.
@@MyrtosArtCorner That's okay, sometimes a comment just gets lost haha! i still need a better printer
@@AlexisCassandraArt For what it's worth, I would have bought a cheaper one if I were to do it all over again 🤷♀️
Which is a better format to take such a picture? PDF, JPG …OR?
RAW would be the best choice!
Is there any cheap alternatives for lighting?

Good points. I like your phone mount. Did you get that off Amazon by chance?

Oh this is so helpful! Thank you! What type of phone do you use? And what program do you use to edit? Thanks so much for sharing!

@@mariahwest1065 You're very welcome!
I have a Galaxy s20 and it has a 100 megapixel camera should I use 100 megapixels or the standard 20 ?
I'd go with the best possible choice and shoot in raw if possible! You can never have too much detail 😊 Thank you for watching!
@@MyrtosArtCorner I guess I'll try both ways to see which is better. Any thoughts on print on demand services like printful?
