In product photography, do not use a point light source or hard light source to shoot such products. Due to uneven light reception, the product pictures taken will have very ugly reflection points. We can choose to use soft light to illuminate the object to shoot product pictures so that the pictures taken will not look very abrupt.
2. BLACK EDGE
In product photography, if you use such reflective products to shoot, you can first use a hood to block the scattered natural light. Lighting, pay attention to the shooting of the product's falling light point in line with the requirements, and then use black cardboard to outline the black edge of the product so that the quality of reflective products is not easy to product photograph in the light.
3. BACKLIGHTING
Backlighting is a way to create a light source behind the main body of the product to be photographed. You can choose to use a soft light box, sulfuric acid paper, and other lighting accessories for lighting.
Backlighting will make the product produce its own contour light, and the product drawings photographed will not have strange reflection points.
