Shooting a Woodstock Artist's Work

If you've ever tried to photograph a flat surface you know about its challenges. SMMS was hired by a local Woodstock artist to catalog his body of work for his website. Here are techniques we used to overcome some typical problems. We used a professional set up, placing the camera a couple steps away from the surface and setting the camera to the highest resolution. In editing we cropped the images removing the typical wonky lens pincushion or barrel distortion effect. The portfolio was captured beautifully and true to the original art.
