Today I snapped the pictures for the two new pins I got over the weekend, sooo I decided to share my quick photo setup. I am not a professional photographer so you don’t have to be. All it takes is a clean bright background and good natural light. Easy right? PS: No fancy camera required, either ;)
Here is what I used: a dining chair (for elevation) – you can use a table or bookcase. A light piece of fabric – the possibilities for this are endless. From my experience, the lighter the better, you don’t want your pictures to look like they were taken in a dungeon! Lastly, for extra texture and character I place a tissue paper sheet around the product, in this case I used the romantic pink.
See my final product picture below! This may not be the greatest example because I use a DSLR camera and you can’t get the same results with a regular point and shoot camera, unless you go through an editing process.

Have no fear, I found the best step-by-step process for taking product pictures with a point and shoot camera and the editing that went along with it. Check out
this post by Liz where she shows you all you need to know. Amazing!
I hope this is somewhat helpful and relevant. I think everyone judges products after their pictures a little bit. I know I do, especially on Etsy. You have to stand out somehow among all the goodies, right?
Well that is it for me tonight, I made a revelation early this morning so I’ll share that tomorrow ;) toodles!
