In addition to a stand alone item photograph, take pictures of clothing being worn by a model if you can. If no model or dressmaker’s dummy is available, use hangers to display items against your backdrop on a wall. This looks more professional than a pic of clothes laid out on a bed or table.

Jewelry can be modeled, too, as long as it isn’t worn as a piercing. Many customers feel that earrings that have been worn, even by a model, are dirty, used goods, and unhygienic. I have to agree!

To display post style earrings, cover a small piece of cardboard with backdrop fabric. Carefully push the post into the cardboard and snap your pic. Hanging hook earrings from a glass or vase can make a nice display.
