Depending on the fabric, you might want something with some pin points sticking 
up from it to hold the fabric tight.  Maybe take some plywood and drill some 
holes just big enough for some fabric pins.

As to lighting, Light, Science and Magic is a great resource for how to light 
some of those challenging materials.

photographing textile arts

2020-06-21 Thread Christine Aguila
Hi Everyone!

Hope all is well!  

Quick question:
I’d like to develop skills used to photograph the textile arts—which can often 
include fabrics with beads and metals and sequins etc.
So, has anyone done this kind of work?  Any recommendations? Tips? Resources?

Also, any tips for ways and stands for hanging the art so it can be 
photographed?

I do have a photography background stand for background papers etc.  Has anyone 
used this stand to photograph art?

Maybe two stands?  One to hold the rolled background paper, then another stand 
to hang the art from?  Something like that?  What do you think?

Cheers, Christine
