How to Photograph Home Decor and Small Furniture

Decor is bought by imagination: buyers need to see the item in a real room and understand its size.

Simple setup you can do at home

  • A window with indirect daylight (no direct sun) or two inexpensive LED panels.
  • A sheet of white foam board or paper as a backdrop and a second one as a reflector.
  • Your phone on a small tripod; turn off the flash and use the main (1×) lens.
  • Clean the product and remove dust, fingerprints and loose threads before shooting.

Styling

  • Keep the item the hero — two or three supporting props at most.
  • Use natural window light and shoot at the item's height.
  • Keep vertical lines straight (use your phone's grid).

Must-have shots

  • Clean packshot
  • Styled room scene
  • Scale shot with everyday objects
  • Material close-up
  • Dimensions graphic
