Is there really value in getting professional photos?
You have worked hard to create your product. Hours of trial and error, late night problem solving, market research and careful thought have gone into your product. It can be tempting to cut corners, but photography is not the place to do that.
You may be tempted to take photos on your smartphone, or even your own DSLR, but unless you have a nice, clean background and professional lighting, odds are you will end up with a poor result.
There is no need to pay thousands for photos though. If you shop around, you will be able to find great deals on photography. Just be sure you are happy with the previous work the photographer has done. If you would be proud to use the photographs you see on their website, then you should be safe to proceed.
Communicate your needs to the photographer, explain how the photos will be used, and ask them if there are any possible limitations. For example, if you have a white product, chances are you will not be able to have a pure white background behind it.
Plain backgrounds are not the only choice. You can even create a scene that reflects your brand image. The example above uses hard stone and crystals to showcase “Granite” health tonics, which are imbued with vibrational energies.
