Hi Friends!

You don’t need a ton of expensive equipment to shoot professional-looking product photos!

Here’s how I take pictures for my Le Trango/Etsy site.

You will need a couple of things:

  1. Smart phone

  2. White foam board (or any surface you choose!) and optional props!

  3. Indirect natural lighting (Keyword: INDIRECT! Direct lighting is way too harsh)

  4. A photo editing app. I use a combination of AfterLight and if you have it, Adobe Bridge.

I place my product on white foam board and use props to add interest!
