Amazon Store Photography Standards

What are the photography considerations when selling your products on Amazon?

For a long time, Amazon has been one of the UK’s most popular destinations for online shopping. There’s almost nothing that you can’t buy on there and the addition of Prime means that members can receive their items faster direct to their door.  It’s a trend that shows no signs of slowing with the consumer love for online shopping growing month on month.  It’s fair to say that it’s hard to beat the type of price competitiveness and fast delivery that Amazon have to offer.

Therefore, developing a store to allow you to sell your products on Amazon is a popular addition to the portfolio of many online retailers but it’s hard to be successful in such a busy marketplace.  The first thing that a potential customer will see of the products that your business has to offer is the photographs (Amazon allow you up to seven photographs per listing). This means that one of the keys to standing out from the crowd is the quality of your images – eye catching, super high-quality images will showcase your product’s features, increase your search ranking and give your listing the highest chance of being converted to a sale.

Despite being a place where so many different sellers can congregate, Amazon have a standard to maintain when it comes to the unique look of their product photography and the appearance of their website. This means that they have a strict set of requirements when it comes to the type of photographs that they will accept with listings.  Format, file size and the background colour are all key to getting your listing accepted.  We’re very familiar with the Amazon set of requirements, which you can read below in their entirety.

AMAZON PHOTOGRAPHY SPECIFICATION
They recommend that photographs be “professionally lit and photographed or scanned, with realistic colour, and smooth edges.” That can certainly be very difficult to achieve at home even using purpose bought light boxes and the difference between home and professional photographs will nearly always be noticeable.

At our studio, we have invested thousands into the equipment that we use to capture images, not to mention the training that we have in making sure that your image meets the guidelines but still shows the features and quality of your product.

Our photographs will always have the best possible clarity, focus, resolution as well as natural colours and reflections with a pleasing and professional feel. We further enhance this with our editing process to create finished images that have razor sharp edges and are completely blemish free.

SMALL OWNER MANAGED BUSINESS PHOTOGRAPHY
Our business is based around offering support to all businesses, including those that that are smaller, owner managed enterprises.  There’s no job that is too large or small for us to take on and the service is probably more affordable than you would think.

We have experience in shooting all types of products from clothing to bottles, from jewellery to fashion, from accessories to hand sanitiser – there really aren’t any limits on what we can capture for you.  We can also work to your deadlines to ensure that your products are ready for market in the shortest possible time – professional commercial photography that meets your needs is both possible, fast and affordable with us. Just get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Why Should Solar Panels be Professionally Maintained?

Why Should Solar Panels be Professionally Maintained? Over the years, panels can suffer faults that remain invisible to the naked eye but which impact their efficiency in terms of generating power. In serious situations these faults can even lead to a fire hazard. So it’s really important to keep up with the maintenance on your panels to keep your installation safe and also to make sure you are making the most of your investment. Obviously, the problem with regular and specialist inspection of your panels is that they are most likely to be in inaccessible areas of your home such as your roof. Having an actual human being up there to manually test each panel can be costly due to the health and safety precautions they have to take and potentially equipment they have to hire in order to gain access, plus you run the risk of damage to your roof structure during the inspection process. However, there is a simple and non-invasive solution that reduces inspection costs and means that if you d...

Solar Panel Faults - Common Types and Causes

Solar panels are a popular and efficient source of renewable energy that can last for decades. However, like any other technology, they are not immune to faults. Identifying and fixing faults in solar panels is essential to ensure their long-term functionality. In this article, we will explore the common types of solar panel faults, their causes, and how to prevent them. Solar Panel Faults: Common Types Hot Spots A hot spot is a concentrated area of high temperature on a solar panel, usually across a single cell. It occurs when a section of the panel fails to convert solar energy into electricity and instead absorbs it, causing heating. Hot spots can lead to panel damage, reduce efficiency, and in extreme cases, potentially start a fire. PID (Potential Induced Degradation) PID is an electrical phenomenon that causes a significant drop in the output power of a solar module panel. It occurs when a voltage difference develops between the solar cells and the grounded frame, leading to a le...

Common Causes of Solar System Under Performance

Not All Solar Panel Issues are Electrical Cell or String Faults Dirt on the Panels One very common cause of panels not functioning effectively is simply that they have become dirty over time, particularly in urban city locations, this can diminish performance by up to 10%. Regular panel cleaning can solve this problem. Check out our article on how to safely clean your solar panels here. However, if your panels have been on the receiving end of lichen growth or bird droppings, it is possible that hot spot damage has been caused that cleaning off the surface won’t fix. So, once you have cleaned your panels, you might still see that they are not operating at an optimum level. Shadowing / Shaded Panels It might be that your solar panels are being partially shaded.  For example, by trees that have grown since installation. Whilst this won’t damage your panels, it will be worth clearing any overgrown trees and large shrubs so your panels can once again enjoy a clear view of the sun. Degr...
