The Right Way to Photograph Bridal Jewelry on Your Big Day

Wedding photo albums shouldn’t just include pictures of the couple. This is also your time to shine as the bride! While you should take a handful of beautiful photos with your partner, make sure you leave some room for stunning solo bridal shots that steal the show.

Wedding jewelry plays a big role in enhancing bridal photography. If captured correctly, it’ll add a spark to your wedding photo album. In this blog, we’ll help you get things just right. Use this guide to understand the right way to photograph bridal jewelry on your big day. Let’s begin!

1. Defocus the Background

The focus is on your jewelry, not the background. No matter how mesmerizing the background may be, it should take a back seat for jewelry photography.

Make sure your photographer focuses on your jewelry and blurs out the background. We love this particular shot. The bride’s gold star-shaped earrings and bold ring stand out against her dusky skin and sparkly white wedding gown.

Our gaze instantly falls on the bling; there are no distractions. This is what you call a power-packed shot!

2. Capture the Classic Jewelry & Manicure Shot

Certain elements take the focus away from bridal jewelry while others enhance it. If you want your jewelry to look even more stunning, supplement it with similar textures and colors.

In this photo, the bride’s silver and white tiara looks even better as she fixes it into place with her sparkly white and silver fingernails. The colors beautifully complement each other and stand out against her olive skin tone.

Her makeup is simple and stunning, not overwhelming. The outcome? The focus is entirely on the bling. When complementing jewelry and manicures are photographed together, the outcome is simply stunning, as seen here.

3. Focus on the Details

It’s all about the details! As a bride, you don’t have to worry about choosing bold jewelry that easily stands out on camera. Even if your jewelry is intricate and simple, your wedding photographer should have a knack for capturing its essence on film.

This is an excellent example. While the bride is wearing minimalist bridal jewelry, it still stands out. Why? Because the photographer has clicked a well-planned close-up shot with all the focus on the rings.

This shot is simple and spectacular. Stick to your jewelry preference and find a photographer who can work with your style. Your aesthetic sense shouldn’t be compromised; an experienced photography team will work their magic and wow you.
