Trash to Cash. A podcast about making a living on eBay.
I’ve been shooting professionally and have some decent studio equipment, but honestly you don’t need all of that to get a decent image. Some things to consider when shooting product on a white background. My set-up has 3 lights, a plain white window shade that’s 42″ wide. We mount it over a table and pull it down and over the table. This gives you a nice seamless white background. Ideally you want to get your subject far away from you background as you can. This way your background is basically out of focus and you subject looks much sharper. We have one light pointing toward background and 2 lights on our subject. THe light on the background should be stronger then your 2 main lights this will eliminate ghosting or shadowing. your camera settings should be adjusted for proper exposure with your 2 main lights that hit your subject. There are some decent lighting systems that don’t cost a lot that can give you some decent results. The great thing about the white window shade is when your done you can just roll it back up and since its vinyl you can keep it white by just wiping it with some Windex or some other cleaner.
