[Nfb-krafters-korner] Taking pictures as a blind person

[ncbootman at gmail.com]

If you want really good pictures, just count hiring somebody for this as a 
part of your costs. Sighted people have costs associated with the business 
and they pay for advertising, photos, graphic design and the like. So, as 
blind people, when a picture really matters, pay to have it done by a 
sighted person. This can be made more affordable by developing a line of 
offerings. If you sell six of a pattern even if over a long period of time, 
your cost per sale is decreased. If everything is a one of a kind to never 
be repeated, you'll have to charge more to cover that cost. Many sighted 
people couldn't balance a simple account. They hire an accountant. You can 
take pictures. You hire a photographer. Label those pictures you pay to get 
so you know what they are and save them so you can use them again when you 
sell an identical piece.

That is a tough one.  I haven't figured out a way yet and I have no sight.
The good thing is that you can take a lot of pictures and have a sighted
person go thru them and pick out the best, if you can find a person to do
that.

I am planning on kicking off a new online business and I figured that will
be the way I am going to try to do it.

I don't know about earrings, but they do have like displays for necklaces
that have the black velvet and maybe if you get that that is elevated in the
back you could put the earrings on it and use a camera stand or like the NFB
reader stand that holds your cell phone and take the pictures.

Hi all, I have a question for those of you who have no usable vision and who
sell your crafts on line.  How do you take pictures?  Do you have a specific
ap on your phone?  A specific computer program?  I take pictures with the
help of sighted people when I make jewelry but would like to know of a way I
could do it more independently.
