How do you document the quilts you make for future generations? In this episode, I talk with photographer and marketing coordinator Carissa Ramirez about the intersection of photography and quilting, sharing practical tips every quilter can use to capture their work authentically.
Carissa shares her photography journey from teenage experimentation to professional work, revealing how she developed her signature true-to-color editing style.
We cover essential quilt photography techniques including chasing natural light, managing harsh sun and low-light situations, using props for composition, photographing quilts in authentic use, and understanding color perception.
We also discuss the realities of creative business—social media pressures, fair pricing, sustainability, and gatekeeping in creative communities.
Whether you're documenting quilts for your own records, building a portfolio, or preserving family textile heirlooms, this conversation gives you practical tools to start today.
