    FOR EVERYONE ASKING WHAT THE HECK MATERIAL THAT WHITE BACKDROP IS, SEARCH FOR A "WHITE PERSPEX SHEET" OR "WHITE ACRYLIC SHEET".
    They actually come in many colours and many building material supply stores will sell them. I'm sorry I didnt clarify it enough in the video. Thanks everyone for your wonderful feedback. Makes me feel good that I can help a lot of people 👍🏻 more videos coming.

      The lamp you put next to the product, does that emulate natural light as if it were shining through a window? I don't have alot of windows in my house so no natural light to take pictures with.

      @@knowledgegizmo7934 A white florescent or LED light most closely approximates the colour of natural light, yes. But then you need to "modify" it by softening it so you can get different styles on the subject you are photographing

    I could not figure out what "Baking Paper" was. Finally found it.
    "Parchment paper, Baking Paper, or bakery release paper are cellulose-based papers that have been treated or coated to make them non-stick. They are used in baking as a disposable non-stick surface. They should not be confused with wax paper or waxed paper, which is paper that has been impregnated with wax."Wikipedia.

    Luke, I take photos of hydraulic components for my company's on-line catalog. I position them all over the place to try to get good light, and then I still have to Photoshop the crap out of them. Wish I'd found you a long time ago, I could have been taking much better photos, without over-editing them. You make it seem so simple - because you obviously understand what's necessary. Thanks so much for the good instruction!

    Pro tip: dont use harsh light when doing product photography because when you use harsh lighting setups, the light will be too strong thus casting a relatively 'strong' shadow around your product, subconsiously, the shadow moves the overall attention of the viewer from the product to the shadow. so remember to difuse the light to prevent drastic dynamic difference
