Hello readers! Greetings from SmallObjectPhotography.com's new headquarters! I've been busy moving my studio to a new location in Greenwood (Seattle, WA) and am excited to start some new classes that will take advantage of one of my favorite features of the new space:
Did anyone say, "natural light"? Yippee! :)
In the meantime, how about a quick tip?
Ever wonder how some small object photographers seem to defy gravity?
Well, wonder no more! Head over to your local hardware or housewares retailer and pick up a package of this fantastic product:
Quake Hold Museum Putty |
Quake Hold™ is an opaque white putty sticky enough to hold up most objects long enough to take a gravity defying photo and make your customers wonder if you're magic! The best part: when removed, it leaves absolutely no residue behind.
Recommended: Use as small piece as possible and angle your shot to make hiding the putty from the camera easier.
Note:
Even though it might seem like a better idea to go with the same company's other product, Clear Museum Gel™ I don't recommend it for photography. It doesn't have the same sticking power like the putty does for the application we're using it for. (It does a great job of holding glassware to your shelves though!)
I'll be back soon with more tricks and tips from the Small Object Photography studio! Thanks for your support!

Thanks great info. I hope I can find some in my local hardware store.
I was wondering how you did that :) Thanks for sharing the tip and enjoy your new workspace. Looks pretty.
