SECRETS OF JEWELLERY

This brief was a collaboration between Benjamin Turgel, a 2nd year photography student, and myself. His brief was to take photography of historical jewellery that held an interesting story relating to Jewish history. My role in the brief was to edit his photography and turn it into a book of the images and their stories.

Benjamin wanted to the book to be high end and luxurious. I laser cut the title design onto the front and back cover and spine. We got the book printed professionally and I perfect bound and covered it myself. The inside cover has a burgundy inner with a brown book mark ribbon. The paper used is high quality photography paper to give the images the right finish.

The images that I recieved were of the jewellery alone and I transformed them on Photoshop. Some of the images that I revieved were bad quality and therefore I found it harder to transform them in Photoshop to a high standard. Above are a selection of the before and after images to show the process.

Inside layouts are clean and simplistic with images and their story sharing a double page spread.The type used is very neutral in order for it to not influence the story and photography.
