FAQ

How do I photograph electronics without reflections?

Use soft, diffuse light rather than a hard direct source, angle the device slightly to control screen glare, and keep bright objects out of the reflection. Wipe screens and glossy surfaces first.

Can I shoot electronics product photos with a phone?

Yes. Gadgets, cables, peripherals and packaging are rigid, uniform products that photograph well on a phone with even light and automatic background removal — ideal for large, fast-moving accessory catalogues.

What background is best for electronics product photos?

A clean white or transparent background is standard for catalogue and marketplace listings. Shoot on a plain surface and remove the background so every product matches.
