For product and studio photography, one of the best additions to your shooting space is a lightbox. A lightbox provides illumination and is a fantastic way to get soft, diffused lighting to your subject, preventing dark spots and harsh shadows.
If you’re photographing items, such as for an Etsy store or your e-commerce website, lightboxes will give you a higher quality image, highlighting the item itself without distracting reflections or shadows. Lightboxes are white, giving you a clean, bright backdrop for your product, although many also include colored backgrounds to customize your shot.
The left video is a demo of the light box I used. The right video is my first time using it.
