Common Product Photography Challenges
Reflective Products (Glass, Metal, Jewelry)
Use diffused lighting to minimize reflections
Shoot on a matte surface
AI handles most reflections well, but extreme reflections may need manual touch-up
Clothing and Fabric
Use a mannequin or flat lay for consistent shape
Ensure fabric edges are well-defined
Iron or steam wrinkles before shooting
Small Items (Jewelry, Electronics)
Use macro photography for detail
Ensure sharp focus on the product
High contrast backgrounds work best
