E-commerce product lighting — what you need to know

Product photography for e-commerce needs clean, consistent light with no distracting shadows. White or light grey backgrounds require a lit background or a fill from below. A key light at 45° plus a fill on the opposite side handles most products. Reflective surfaces (glass, jewellery, metals) need edge lighting and sometimes a tent. SetMyLight gives you 3 matched setups based on your light count so you can start shooting without guessing.
