Where is the best location to photograph your product?

If you sell a product and have a limited budget, you may be photographing the product yourself so that you can use the images to market your product. If this is the case, you may be wondering where the best location is to photograph your product.

While the answer may vary depending on what your product actually is, there are some general guidelines you should follow to ensure that your product photographs in the best way.

Here are two tips on how to find the best location to photography your product:

One. Lighting is key. Having a lot of light is very important to make sure that your image is sharp and not grainy. Light plays a key role in these components. The more light you have, the sharper the image will be. The less light you have, the more grainy your image will be. This is why we suggest photographing your product parallel to a window in your home. The image below was taken right next to a window. Can you tell?

Two. Match your environment to your product. If your product is sunscreen, maybe the best location might be at the beach in the sand. If you don’t have a beach nearby, you can always create a mockup using towels, fake sand, and water, and lay the scene parallel to a window in your home for best light. If your product some type of food, then a kitchen setting may be the best location. Always try to determine what type of background would match your product, and then go from there.
