Thermos, Linen, and a Cold Drink — Light That Reveals Materials

The lighting of product images should illustrate how the object is used and what it is made of. Strong light spots are not always high-end: brushed steel requires continuous and restrained reflection, linen requires soft texture, and cold drinks require water droplets on the wall of the cup. The header image puts the three surfaces on the same surface, still allowing each object to have independent outlines and contact shadows.

Define the product structure first, then decide on the light

Hot and cold comparison of the Peak Thermos CupPlace the brushed steel cup on the frosty rock surface, and the hot air from the lip of the cup will provide clues to its use. The prompt words clearly indicate the position of the cup lid, the direction of the steel grain, and the direction of the sunrise, to avoid mistakenly drawing the hot air into background clouds and fog.Trail running shoes on the track after rainEmphasis is placed on the sole's deep tread, mesh and mud spots; its low-angle sidelight serves to distinguish materials rather than hide the shoe's shape. The two are different products and cannot be used in the same "shiny reflection" description.

Water drops and cloth patterns require different scales

Extreme close-ups don’t mean cropping the product into unrecognizable texture samples.

Photography prompt words can be organized according to "structure-usage environment-material evidence-light source direction". After generation, first look at the outline and functional components, and then look at reflections, water droplets, and fibers; only when the details and overall are established, the picture will be suitable for the product page.
