Turn your products into stars: tips for improving your sales photos

Turn your products into stars: tips for improving your sales photos

  • Choose the right equipment: Choose a high quality camera with a good lens. If you don't have a professional camera, a smartphone with a high quality camera is a good option.
  • Lighting is key: Natural light is the best option, but if this is not possible, use LED lights or spotlights to illuminate your product from different angles. Avoid shadows and unwanted reflections.
  • Create a neutral background: Use a white, grey or black background to make the product the centre of attention and avoid distractions. You can use paper, cardboard or fabric as a background.
  • Choose the right angle: Show your product from different angles and highlight the most important features. If you have a product with details, take close-up photos so that they can be appreciated.
  • Create an environment: If your product is used in a specific environment, such as a kitchen or living room, show your product in that environment so that customers can visualise how it would look in their environment.
  • Retouch your photos: Use photo editing software to adjust brightness, saturation and contrast. But be careful not to overdo it, as customers want to see the real product and not an altered image.
  • Optimise your photos for the web: Make sure your photos are the right size and resolution for the web. Photos that are too large can slow down the loading of your website. Also use keywords in the file name and ALT tag to improve your website's SEO.

Remember that your product photos are the first impression customers will have of your business. Follow these tips to improve the quality of your photos and attract more customers.
