How to photograph artwork without any glare

In this video Alastair expands on the earlier video we did about how to photograph artwork. Here he explains how reflections can be minimized, using black fabric and boards and using a polarizer. Note that we have an earlier video detailing the basics for photographing artwork, this is just about minimizing reflections (eg reflective materials or a glass cover on the frame). Learn step-by-step how to photograph artwork without glare using lighting, camera positioning, polarizing filters, and post-processing techniques. 0:00 – Introduction Alastair introduces the common challenge of photographing artwork without glare, especially with glass frames. He emphasizes the importance of proper lighting and camera positioning. 0:45 – Understanding Glare Explanation of how glare occurs when light reflects off glass, and how it affects photo quality. 1:30 – Lighting Techniques Demonstrates using two soft lights at 45° angles. Shows how diffusing light minimizes reflections and creates even illumination. 2:15 – Camera Positioning How to position the camera perpendicular to the artwork to avoid distortion and glare. Use of a tripod for stability and sharp focus. 3:00 – Using Polarizing Filters Introduction to polarizing filters to reduce reflections. Demonstrates rotating the filter to eliminate glare. 4:00 – Post-Processing Tips Basic editing tips to reduce remaining reflections, adjust contrast, and enhance the final image. 5:00 – Final Thoughts Recap of key techniques. Encourages experimentation with lighting and camera angles to find the best setup for your artwork.
