Photo Help Please

[Former_Member]

I have a plain kodak point and shoot digital camera. I make baby felt mobiles and am having the hardest time getting any good pictures taken! They move around- sway so much- I get a lot of shadows behind them. I would love to make a light box but I'm not sure that would work since the mobiles have to be suspended. Any suggestions would be great!

Not sure if this would solve the movement problem....but I would think you could suspend it from a line long enough to reach the ground or table that the light box is on and take a photo that way...not sure if that makes sense.. = ]

ok- thanks for that tip :)

I would hang it up in a bright location, near a window, against a white wall and take some shots from a distance - feature several shots to show several items coming into view.

For your upclose shots I would drape it on a nice surface - and take the shot from above or the side showing the texture and featuring the designs. :)
