E-commerce Product Photography
If you are selling products on Amazon or anywhere on the world wide web you want your photos to be of the highest quality possible. Photos sell your product, pretty simple, bad photos, bad sales. Once your product is professionally photographed, it's out in front of millions of people for however long you want, bringing in the sales. Amazon has product image requirements, as you will see below.
Every detail page in the Amazon store requires at least one product image, and they recommend you provide six images and one video. I have 5 images, of course we shot more for our client.
Good images make it easy for customers to view the product. Images should be clear, informative, and attractive, in which professional photographers can achieve.
The first image is the "Main" image and is shown to customers in their search. It should be shot on pure white and fill the image frame. Usually it is hard to achieve 255 white surrounding your product so editing in post production is where that happens. It's a full time job for many creative artists.
Additional images should show the product in use or environment, different angles, and features. We call them stylized and yes there are photo stylists keeping busy full time. It takes a special eye to coordinate colors, patterns, composition to create an eye catching photo to sell your product.

Amazon has a Product page style guide I've included the link. Each category has a slightly different requirement. As professional product photographers, we will photograph your product but you may ned a graphic designer to help with the style of your listing, you would not want Amazon to reject your listing after all your hard work.
Quote from Amazon "When you upload your image files, they are checked to confirm that they meet technical file requirements. Files failing to meet these requirements will not be uploaded to your listings. When images are received from multiple sellers, Amazon will favor the images that meets the style guides and standards."
This is why a professional product photographer is essential.
