Photo frustration

Okay, I have GOT to figure out how to take and edit a decent photo for etsy. I just listed my second item on etsy and I don't think the photos are one whit better than my first attempt. Here's what I'm talking about:


I wouldn't even buy from myself if all I saw where the pictures I took! :) It really is a cute onesie--really! I wish you didn't just have to trust me on that.

I'm spending Sunday with my folks downtown and plan to pick my dad's brain so we can all loo forward to an improvement next week (I hope, I hope). And if any of you have tips you want to share, go right ahead.

Hey friend :) Let me know if you want some help with the Photoshop stuff (or whatever you are using :) I'm happy to help. Also, maybe you could consider shooting them on a really fun punchy color so the white stands out nicely. Daylight always helps to soften your lighting too. I'm no photo pro myself. By the way, do you still want to do guitar lessons together?

Maybe you can improve with the photos--like in the lighting andn more contrasty background, like Joellyn said, but the product is still totally adorable!

you could always ask your local photographer to help you out. Just a thought.....
