Photo Taking Tips and Tricks:
No, we’re not talking professional-quality, but good pictures are important and will increase the likelihood of your items being sold. Remember the photo that you upload is what the customer will see.
- Take photos on your phone, iPad, or other device.
- Find some good light- Shoot during daylight, pull back your blinds and turn off the lamps. You can event take pictures outside on a bright and sunny day.
- Use a clean & simple background. A white poster board or blank surface will make your items pop.
- Only ONE picture per item so make it a good one!
- Photos must be vertical
- No blurry pictures
- Use an app to put multiple pictures together into 1 image, but please do NOT combine anymore than 3 pictures. This make the file too large and it may not be able to load into our webstore.
- When shooting bundles make sure all items are visible.
