1. Highlight the subject, blur unnecessary distractions, and highlight the subject. These methods include enlarging the distance between the subject and the background, and using a long focal length lens.

You can also use an artificial background. The principle is that the dark color is lined with the light color subject, and the light color background is lined with the dark color subject. When the background is in the shadow, the jewelry will glow normally.

2. Concentrate as long as possible. When using the macro function of a macro lens or camera, the range of depth of field is very small, so it is not necessary to use a large aperture, and try to expand the depth of field with a small aperture. Generally speaking, the aperture is about F8.

Try to choose the telephoto end of the telephoto macro lens or zoom lens, which can be far away from the subject. This long focal length can better blur the background when shooting tiny objects such as diamond earrings.

3. Side light, side backlight and backlight are especially suitable for expressing the sense of space and three-dimensional sense of jewelry and jade, but the light ratio should not be too large, so you can shoot in soft light in the morning and evening. When the light ratio is large, macro flash, ring flash or reflector can be used to supplement the light.

When shooting, you can also use tripod combined with self-timer function or cable to release shockproof, which not only ensures clarity, but also saves energy when focusing on composition for a long time and frees up your hands to use reflector.
