Product Photography

 There is no getting away from the importance of clear and well lit professional photographs which ever platform you choose to sell your products on. We regularly photograph products for a companies own e-commerce site using platforms such as Big Commerce, Shopify, Square, Wix, Ecwid and WooCommerce, or other seller sites  and social networking sites such as Amazon, Not on the high street, Ebay, Etsy, Instagram and Facebook. Having a high quality packshots and product photography images is key to good sales. I have had many of my clients come to my product photography studio who have attempted to do their own photography to cut down on financial outlay come to me and say they did not realize how many things there is to take into consideration, such as reflections, lighting, shiny surfaces and would I be able to photograph their products for them, cutting corners most of the time does not save money. Many times I have seen on Instagram and Facebook stunning products that have b...

 I was reading on shopify that  “50% of online shoppers think that product photos are more important than product information, reviews, and ratings,”  t his really did not surprise me, when you think in 2021 2.14 billion people worldwide are expected to buy on line compared to 1.66 billion in 2016 and the number keep rising. It is a great way of getting out there, a beautiful packshot is a brilliant way of showing the world your amazing products, customers make a direct link between the quality of your product photography and the quality of your product and how you are as a company, shopify also state that "high quality images can also be the difference between a conversion and a no sale," Keeping a white background for your product photography, especially if you are just starting out is a really good idea, even well established companies still go for white backgrounds, continuity is vital and if you start with white you can't really go wrong, it is clean and fresh goes w...

Packshot photography is the same as product photography, it is the product photographers job to create great looking packshots though amazing photography, the subject should be well lit and clear showing the actual product what ever it may be in the best possible light without any distractions.  The packshot is the most common form of product photography, generally it is shot on a white or uniform background, it can either be shot by the packshot photographer with a small shadow underneath or without shadow at all, some of my clients want their products to be shot on a colored background which is not a problem but continuity is key. Packshots are widely used on websites and printed catalogues. The press often ask for packshots on an invisible background, this is where the product is cut out away from the background, the type of file produced is a tiff file and this enables the user to be able to place it over any type of background.

  As a product and pack shot photographer I have noticed recently the photography studio is keeping very busy and has been receiving many requests for social media photography as they are posting reguarly on sites such as instagram, facebook, tumblr and twitter, especially as more companies are going online and all competing to appear on the first page of a google search or to gain large followings.  It is a fact that google favor websites with great professional images as do many of the social media platforms.
