How to Take Better Soap Photos
One of the most commonly asked questions asked is…
“How do I take better photos of my soap?”
It’s a great question. Especially if you’re trying to advertise or sell soap by any means other than face to face.
Absent the opportunity to smell or feel your soap, a great photo must help the buyer instantly understand what your soap is about.
What can I expect it to smell like?
Adding cues like appropriate flowers, spices, herbs, essential oil bottles etc. can help the viewer get a sense of the scents.
What can I expect it to feel like?
If your soap has texture (like exfoliating properties) closeup photos help convey that texture.
How should I expect to use this soap?
Is this an everyday, personal use soap for some skin benefit? Or is it a more decorative item that could be used to dress up the guest bathroom or give as a gift? How fancy is it?
The more you can help the viewer know your soap by the photo you present, including clues and interesting item for staging, the more likely you will sell more soap.
And that’s what we’re all about. Selling more soap!
