Silverware, because of its highly reflective surfaces, is regarded as one of the most difficult subjects to photograph successfully. Conventionally controlled studio lighting is not an option with such expensive items. It has to be shot in the golf clubhouse. By using specially designed equipment to handle both silver and glass, we can create high resolution images that reflect the high value and condition of your trophy collection. Each item of silverware has its own electronic folder, and is photographed with and without a measuring ruler. The whole collection is stored on CD-Rom disks Close up images are taken of any engraving and style detailing on each item. Macro shots (very close up) are taken of the all-important hallmark. Every name and winner is taken - giving an additional record of the history of that particular trophy. It's worth remembering that replacement hand- engraving costs on an old silver trophy can be as expensive as the value of the piece itself.
