Photographing work can be ... challenging, here I have the 'perfect' set-up , overcast, yet dry (for the best saturation and colour spectrum in diffuse daylight conditions) . I have chosen white as my website background colour so I painted 2 white boards to take the pictures against, this is important to me since I have tinted cast shadows produced by the work. Luckily is was not too cold today or windy both can make things more difficult, nice! I have the stepladder set-up so I can try to get a picture that is not distorted by having an angle on things... I take a few shots and try to get a good resolution for the web, although I am not in possession of everything anymore so at times I have to take what I can get...
All this is trickier if said art work is still wet, try to take a pristine shot of a wet bunch of oil painted modules... you end up wearing it for most of the day...but sometimes to hit deadlines for images it is what happens...
