Product Photography for E-commerce

Product photographers create professional product images for e-commerce - clean white background shots, lifestyle images, detailed close-ups, and 360-degree views.

Quality product photography directly impacts conversion rates and sales for online retailers.

Per-product pricing ranges from $25-$150 depending on complexity or day rates of $500-$2,000.

Shooting 60-120 products monthly generates $60,000-$180,000 annually with 60-75% margins.

Target clients include Amazon FBA sellers, Shopify and e-commerce stores, brands selling online, product manufacturers, wholesale catalogs, and marketplace sellers.

Services include white background product shots, lifestyle and context photography, detail and texture shots, 360-degree product photography, image editing and retouching, and Amazon-compliant photography.

Success requires lighting and photography equipment for products, post-processing and editing skills, understanding of e-commerce image requirements, efficient workflow for volume shooting, and building online retail client base.

Many product photographers specialize in product types (jewelry, clothing, food), offer packages for e-commerce startups, invest in photography studio space and equipment, use consistent efficient lighting setups, and potentially offer Amazon listing optimization alongside photography.
