HOW TO PHOTOGRAPH YOUR FURNITURE A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATED GUIDE FOR THE FURNITURE MANUFACTURER WHO WANTS TO TAKE CLEAN IMAGES OF FURNITURE PIECES
As a furniture manufacturer it is important that you have a catalogue of your products to show your customers. How you present your products is critical to your clients making a decision whether or not to buy.
Taking a picture in a disorganized way with clutter in the background will turn off potential customers. Instead, try taking pictures against a clear background. This will not only make the pieces stand out more, but gives a more professional appearance to your products. This simple guide will help you to take better pictures and win more customers!
You do not need any fancy equipment. You may use a small point and shoot camera or even your cell phone! The only other thing you will need is a large sheet, preferably white or a light colour. DO NOT USE A SHEET WITH PATTERNS OR DARK COLOURS. The sheet should be large enough to block out unwanted objects in the background.
