Create Professional Product Photos Without a Studio

A window, a sheet of card and a cutout tool is enough to produce catalogue-quality product images.

You do not need a lighting kit. You need soft light, a plain surface and a consistent process.

The window setup

Place the product beside a north-facing window with a sheet of white card opposite to bounce light back into the shadows.

Shoot at a consistent height

Prop the phone at the same height for every product so the catalogue looks like one shoot.

Cut out and standardise

Remove the background, apply the same fill and crop, then add a matching drop shadow.

Review as a grid

Look at the finished images side by side, not one at a time. Inconsistencies only show in the grid.
