How to Photograph Craft Projects: Photography Guide for Selling Your Arts

Posted by Christine on November 1st, 2009 at 01:36pm

Maria Nerius wrote this beautiful article on how to photograph and sell your arts and crafts. Be sure you take note as this is a great guide. You don’t need to invest in the most expensive camera, but if you are serious about selling your work online consider investing in a tripod. This is just one of the tips she gives. Some other tips Maria gives are:

  • Take your photos outside to get the best light on your items. Cloudy days are best as the filtered light helps bring pop to the photo.
  • Display your item in an interesting way, but don’t let the background or display become too busy. You want your item to be the main attraction.
