How to Take the Best Photos of your Products and/or Services (Full Article)
We've come up with a list of tips that will help insure your images are attracting the attention your products merit and gaining an audience that feels confident to make a purchase on your online store.
When taking photos of your products and/or services, keep the following tips in mind:
1. Products that Jump Out! |
Use a white background so that your images will capture the attention
of your audience. A white background is a good starting point, but if
you choose to use a colored background, make sure that your product is
clearly visible. It should not blend in with the background. If you
have multiple products, try to use the same background color as a
measure of consistency. Don't make your audience work to find the
product.
|
2. No blurred Images! |
If you don't have a tripod, find a
sturdy surface to place your camera. Your images should be crisp and
clear. If using a digital camera, make sure to use the macro focus
setting (look for the flower icon) when taking your up-close shots.
|
3. More Light / Less Light / Good Light / Bad Light? |
Lighting can be tricky, so you may
need to get adventurous when exploring the best setting for your photoshoot and possibly using props to assist in your picture taking. Try
not to use a built-in flash, as this can dull your image. Non-direct,
natural light is optimal, but you can play with various forms of
external light and get great results as well. Lighting boxes are an
inexpensive option, however you may find an object in your house (i.e.:
ice chest) which works just as good. The perfect spot for setting up
your photoshoot may be in your house, your backyard, or under a shady
tree.
|
4. Size really does matter. |
Make sure your images are not too
large or too small for your online store. They should pass the
Goldilocks test and be just right. Staying within a 250-300 pixel
width usually works, but this will depend on the layout you choose for
your web store.
|
5. Need assistance? |
Use the specific software on your
home computer to help with editing your images. You can explore making
changes in brightness and contrast, color, cropping, re -sizing and
more. Numerous FREE software solutions are available on the Internet
(i.e.: Snapfish, Snipshot or Picknik) to assist you with optimizing
your images. These programs will also save your photos in the required
format (jpg or gif) of your online store.
|
6. Have Fun! |
Be creative and find ways to showcase
your product or services uniquely. A personalized, one-of-a-kind
display will catch the interest of your shoppers. Look online to get
ideas and see what the competition is doing. You can determine what
photos capture your attention, and then decide how you can improve on
the concept.
|
7. Hire a Photographer |
Lastly, if you feel as if doing it yourself isn't an option, give us a
call. We have several Photographers with varying price ranges to take
professional photos for you. 503-922-1276

Hi Ken, I have a parallel site to teomdulws.com at twmodulos.com for spanish modules. There is a situation though that you should be aware of. In Spanish all of these public domain works are not available. So the first thing that is affecting the posting of Spanish modules is simply that so many of the works in English (public domain works) are just not out there. Secondly, a book is considered public domain when time passes from the time of its creation (and public publication, but a book written 500 years ago and not published, and then afterwards is published has a current copyright). You can basically do anything you want to with it. But with translations of a public domain work, the translation is treated as a totally new work, and it has a copyright on it from the date of translation, not the date of the original work. So all the PD works out there in Spanish is just doubtful as far as if they are available for publication. The caveat here that even though a new translation has a modern copyright, anybody can go back to the old original english work and retranslate it, and put it out with their own copyright.I am slowly writing and translating works in Spanish. I have personally written about 65 books in Spanish, most about 40-80 pages long. They are summaries and my own writings about general Bible topics. It is my desire to greatly add to those works and as time goes on, I want to translate myself many English works into Spanish (to secure my own copyright on them). To my knowledge there is a Spanish JFB and Matthew Henry floating around out in the Internet, but much more, I am not sure of. There are Spanish commentaries out that that don't exist in English. There is a lot of need in this area. Your suggestions and help would be appreciated.
