Art Photography?
I need to take photo of my art works, sculpture and painting.

How to prepare lighting? technique? DIY kit? Photoshop?

I have a 8m digital camera.

Thank you for answer.

The following is the answer:

Answer by Henry Ate My Eggo
For sculpture and objects, a light tent and (preferably) three lights to reduce/eliminate shadows. I don’t care for “no shadow” look, as some shadow give the object depth and substance. Paintings should be shot head-on to give straight lines. Lighting should be daylight temperature (around 5600 Kelvin) to keep the colors true.

Award winning photographer Cole Thompson knew at age 14 that he was destined to be a fine art photographer. While living in Rochester, NY, he stumbled across an old building associated with George Eastman, whose biography he read, and his life in photography began. Thompson has mastered the technique of long exposure, bringing intensified emotional impact to his imagery. It can take a dynamic scene, which a normal exposure would record as static, and create a fluid image. Sometimes the effect is pronounced, where water is transformed into glowing plumes or clouds. Inserting ghost images also contributes an ethereal aura to his photographs. Website: www.colethompsonphotography.com Music War and Peace Morgan Fisher Website www.morgan-fisher.com
