Statement Necklaces, Bold Golds, Radical Look

The eighties was a strong decade for style and it produced some groundbreaking products and innovations including the Walkman, personal computer, the space shuttle, soap-on-a-rope and of course, the mullet… Ok, so not everything was cool but the 80’s certainly had a strong influence on the decades to follow. For this creative still life jewellery photography shoot I channelled some of this style, giving a playful nod to this iconic era. Utilising strong lighting, still life styling, vibrant colours and vintage props, I’d say we nailed it…

Neon coloured shapes with a grid-patterned block background work with the bold statement jewellery pieces, creating a fun and eye-catching look.

The image below is a nod to the famous 80s game Tetris and although the jewellery perhaps isn’t the best fit for the image it still works as a playful and attention grabbing jewellery photograph.

The final darker image on the left of this group was based on those VR-type graphics and colours which were all the rage in the 80’s, again featuring the grid pattern and a vibrant multi-colour surface which ties it all together as a group

The overall success of the jewellery photography is a mixture of a detailed but very flexible brief and a well-selected props to bring ideas to life.  Next, quickly executing the shots and style we liked whilst maintaining both quality and  an eye-catching style. Perfect for online marketing like websites and social media where a decent amount of shots are required to make it cost effective for the client.
