#33 Photographing your Handmade Products successfully with Imelda from Sunset Shutterbug

The Handmade Business Podcast

On today's episode Lynsey and Anna have a lovely guest on, all the way from the sunny state in the USA Imelda from Sunset Shutterbug.

Imelda is a photography coach helping makers who struggle with photography learn how to capture great product photos that sell their crafts online.

And she has some epic tips and step by steps for you to try today!

Imelda is an ex Etsian herself so she fully understands the pains handmade sellers go through to make sure their products stand out from the crowd.

Imelda goes through what mistakes to avoid when taking photographs and the massive importance of taking great photos in the first place.

Imelda also talks us through editing, lighting, backgrounds, props and so much more.

She also gives sound advice around avoiding light boxes and why.

We just loved her top three tips at the end and agree entirely!!

Thanks Imelda for joing us!
