Here are five refined tips to help artisans (especially epoxy contractors, artists and crafters) showcase their creations and coatings with clarity, polish, and personality:
🎨 5 Tips to Perfectly Showcase Your Craft
1. Capture the Pour in Progress
- Don’t just show the final piece—document the transformation.
- Use time-lapse or close-up shots to highlight texture, layering, and technique.
- This builds emotional connection and shows your skill in action.
2. Use Natural Light and Clean Backgrounds
- Photograph your work in soft daylight to reveal true color and depth.
- Choose neutral or artisan-themed backdrops (wood grain, slate, linen) that complement your style without distraction.
3. Tell the Story Behind the Piece
- Share what inspired the pour—was it a coastal walk, a vintage tile, or a moment of reflection?
- A short caption or blog snippet adds meaning and invites viewers into your process.
4. Highlight Details and Scale
- Include macro shots of shimmer, embedded elements, or edge finishes.
- Show scale with a hand, ruler, or placement in a real-world setting (e.g., on a table or wall).
5. Curate Your Gallery with Purpose
- Organize your work by theme, color, or technique to guide the viewer’s experience.
- Use Pourfolio’s dashboard tags or layout tools to create a visual rhythm—like a mini exhibit.
