Client: Antwerp Diamonds

     There were hundreds of pieces
     of jewelry to be shot and marketed.
     You will see in the "before" rollover
     photo the highly reflective nature
     of diamonds makes them difficult
     to photograph consistently. The
     client felt that stylized retouched
     stones would convey a consistent
     look of quality, and save time. So
     starting with the original photograph
     I created  several "perfect" stones
     to be used as replacements, as
     well as adding shadows and
     hi-lights to add life to the metal.
