This is how I take pictures of product

     With over 150 different listings, I take lots of pictures.  Many people don't see most and the best ones I use in my listings.  It was suggested last fall that I purchase a light box or some refer to it as a table top studio.  With having little kids around that would take soap from my pictures as I'm taking them, I thought it would be more of a controlled environment.  This is what my light box looks like ...I like to bounce the light off the top to reduce shadows.  I figured that out after watching my daughter in law take graduation pictures. 

 

I am no way an expert and I keep learning everyday. This article  really helped me learn more about my cameras that I use.  I struggle with the white balance many times.  The article showed me what the possibilities are that I can get from my camera.
