Behind the Scenes: Photographing Fabric
Ever wonder how the fabric you buy gets loaded onto the shop website? Well, friends, wonder no more!
Meet Katie!
If a bolt of fabric arrives and it's a print or solid that's new to the shop, it passes her desk first.
She unwraps and irons each bolt....
Then places it under the lights...
Then snaps a photo!
Katie works hard to be sure the colors are represented accurately on the screen. Gotta help people find just the right red, you know?
I asked Katie how many bolts she can get through in a day. She gave me an answer... care to guess? First person to correctly guess wins bragging rights!
