Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you guys had good tips on taking pictures of products for an e-commerce site. I'll be taking pictures of jewelry and want to make it look professional. Any tips regarding lighting, camera angles, etc...? thanks! Alain
If it's jewelery, I suggest making a white 3 sided box, or buying one, possibly with acrylic surfaces. And place your products within this box, and take pictures of them inside the box. I found this the best way when I ran a small company a couple of years ago.
Yeah, what UKWebmasterForum said here's some links: http://www.cheapshooter.com/2007/07/26/do-it-yourself-pvc-light-box/ http://www.instructables.com/id/Do-It-Yourself-Photography-Light-Box-for-Under-40/ http://adbdat.net/lampshade-light-tent/ http://www.instructables.com/id/Costless-Macro-Photography-Light-Box/
