As fellow glass artists I`m sure you guys know of the challenges of photographing our artwork. I`ve tried various types of techniques but still have reflection problems. Some of my things are too large for a small light box. Sometimes an item looks great on my computer until I load it onto my shop where the colors are too dark or muted and there`s always that shadow or reflection lurking somewhere!

What are your techniques and tips for photographing glass?

You could try building a larger light box to suit your needs.

Just google "home made light box" and you should find some good directions for doing it.

Also try fixing your white balance in photoshop, it just helps with the colour haze in the background. And an easy way to lighten the background but keep the object crisp, is to add a semi transparent white layer, mask it, then reveal the object underneath. It just softens the whole background and takes off the rough pixel-ish look to it.

I did the above to one of your photos, and this is what I got.
