I keep seeing talk of how to take photos, so I wanted to talk just a little about it myself. I gave just a few tips, because there are a lot of things you can do to take great photos, but I don't want to get that lengthy.
I learned a lot of these tricks a little too late. Now I don't want to retake my photos, haha.
I'm showing some photos from a few Etsian Artists that have great photos of their products.
I love the idea of taking photos of your jewelry on rocks, or a rings sticking out of the sand.
They're almost calming, and so inviting!
I'm all about white backgrounds, like in a light box... But some items just look more elegant with a coordinating scene. For instance, the cherry blossom ring with a cream and pink setting.. How pleasing is this? It makes me want the ring so much more!
Just some things to think about..
- Tips for Taking Great Photos
- Use an uncluttered background so the attention is focused on the object, resulting in a stronger photo.
- Make your own Studio, just step outside or next to a window. Use a cloth to drape over a table and smooth out any distracting folds.
- Get close to your object! If you are not able to take a photo close enough, just crop it and enlarge the photo.
- Try different angles. Not just head on.
- Show just a piece of your object. This envokes curiosity and people just have to check it out.
- Try out lots of props, rocks, sand, flowers, candy, food, etc... Almost anything can be sold with candy and food in the photo!
