How to photograph for selling

Sometimes my friends ask me how I take photos for selling. I am not a photographer but the digital camera helps a lot. I try to pay attention to the following:

1. I take photos only outside without flash. There's no difference if it's sunny or cloudy.
2. Background color should not be like your object and not contrast it very much (ex. black on white).
4. The sun have to be behind you
5. Attention on shadows, especially yours :)
6. If you photograph mirror don't forget to check what it shows. There's better to not show you with camera :)

.. then take, take, take photos as much as you can.

What's happened when we dislike something

I exchange napkins with other people who make napkin technic. Usually we show 1/4 of napkin because the motive repeats. Once I have got from somebody a napkin which was typed only on 1/4 of it and the other paper was white. I was upset.

Every day I was looking to it and getting nervous. What could I do with it? There was only some small figures on it and a half of them was cutted.

One morning I got up and I saw it in my mind. I had an idea! I did it!

A girl with kittens - my last work

One day I saw this picture at a jewelery box. And I loved it because I like cats. There was so sweet. I remembered I have an approaching cutting board and that's it.
