Photographing Your Work
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do your photographs really show off your work the way you would like them to?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Allow me to say right up front that this is NOT
a photography "how to" post.
a photography "how to" post.
It is actually more of a discussion about
your photographs in relation to your sales.
your photographs in relation to your sales.
And it is loaded with questions for you to think about.
How close up do you need to be?
How many images are enough? Or too much?
How do you decide what background is best?
With a Frame or Without?
Should you put Etsy Team Banners in your Listings?
If so, how many?
Watermark the images or not?
Props or no props?
Are you images sharp? Blurry?
Lots of things to consider when creating a listing.
Whether it be Finished Jewelry or Jewelry Components,
we all have to photograph our work.
~~~~~
Are any of these things an issue for you?
Do your photographs give the customer a clear picture,
(pardon the pun)
of your work?
~~~~~
Does each photo give them enough visual information
to create a desire to purchase from you?
~~~~~
How do you decide whats working and whats not?
We would love to hear your thoughts.
