If you look at your favorite sellers on Etsy, you will probably notice one thing they have in common: they all have amazing photos of the items in their shops!
Having an online shop - where your customers don't see the items in person, can be challenging.
But, with beautiful descriptions and photos, your customers can have that same 'in store' experience!
Here are a few of my favorite shops - all different items, but all amazing photography:
You get the point, right?
What do the pictures in these shops have in common?
- The pictures are taken from different angles, giving interest and varitey to the item.
- The pictures are taken in soft, natural light.
- They are shot against a plain background or a background that compliments the item - nothing that distracts.
Show off all that hard work!
It may have taken hours to make the item, so be sure to pour that same effort into displaying your item. Let us know how beautiful it really is! Try not to rush and just put up the first picture you take.
Best wishes selling!
Sincerely,
Kate
I love my items, but boy, you make them look so beautiful! Hopefully we can do more work soon with live models :)
