After shining, painting, washing, gluing and everything else I had to do with my Goodwill purchases, I'm finally ready to put a few of them on my Etsy site. My only problem now is, what kind of pictures will really make these sell? I took a few with my super nice, Canon Rebel xTI, but I'm not really in LOVE with them...they just look kinda plain. So, I jumped on the hipstamatic bandwagon and took a few shots with my new DROIDX to make my 'vintage' products look, well, 'vintage-y'. So, here's both of the different shots. Only problem now is...i dislike the DROIDx and am trading back to my beloved blackberry. So, the question is, will these 'vintage-y' looks pics really make my stuff sell better and I should make my Rebel pics look like this, or should I give up the vintage and just go with the regular everyday pics?
Above are some of the vintage pics of my cupcake plates and below are a few of my candlesticks.
I'd love to hear some feedback. I could really use the sales :) Gotta get my trip to Israel in October paid off...
So, answer me this...if the price was right, would you buy these pieces based on these pictures, or would you rather see 'normal' pics to make your decision?
The vintage pics look cool but they make it look like art more than a product to buy. Sometimes just a regular pic well lit with nothing but a solid white or black background, like just on a sheet, makes something look good to sell.
