With new merchandise arriving daily, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the many tasks involved in presenting the merchandise online.Getting just the right image is more often an accident than it is an art. Photoshop is seldom the answer. A great image is just a great image.
Accents of Salado features rustic Mediterranean furniture and accessories and this image, introducing our new Medrano vases, captures the essence of rustic Mediterranean design. The simplicity of the setting emphasizes the classic rounded shapes and the rich, earthy colors found throughout Mediterranean regions.
As I handled the Medranos, I was struck by my thoughts as I began to wonder about the artisan who had shaped these vessels. The unusual hand-painted design and the artistic graduation of earth tones caused me to ask what hands had painted these wonderful creations. I knew I was just the photographer, but these vases had evoked an appreciation that made me want to know more about them and the actual people who had proudly fashioned these works of art. I was glad that the mechanics and pressures of web site management were pushed back in my thoughts and that I found the time to enjoy this small slice of time.
I've discovered that loving what you are photographing is when you end up with one of those rare images.
