At our museum when we shoot reflective objects we have a large black
cloth that we hang from the ceiling (or have staff/volunteers hold)
which has a small slit in it for the camera lens. This way there is
nothing for the object to reflect, you just have to make sure your
cloth is fairly large if you are shooting large objects. It's sort of
confusing to explain but if you have any questions feel free to email
me.
