DO show your finished countertops in context
Ask your clients if you can come back later to take photos in a finished setting, after the backsplash is installed, the sink is in, and all the kitchen appliances and furnishings are moved back into place. Your photos will then show how your countertops enhance the space and work within context of the room.
DON'T forget to remove the clutter Take time to pick up the area you're about to photograph so the room and the countertops are free of extraneous clutter. By removing any distractions, your photos will showcase what's important -- your fabulous-looking concrete countertops. DO a bit of window dressing It's nice to get a close-up photo showing the detail or texture of your concrete countertops, but don't stop there. The best photos are those that include some sort of accent object or architectural element, such as a bowl of fruit or some colorful canisters. Like a bit of jewelry, these adornments will help enhance the beauty of your concrete countertops. DON'T use unflattering lighting When taking indoor photos, lighting can be tricky. Your best bet is to experiment with a few different combinations, such as taking a photo with the overhead lights and lamps on or taking a photo using natural daylight from nearby windows. In sunny rooms, it may be best to close window shades and curtains to reduce glare and shadows. DO take shots from different perspectives If possible, take shots of your countertops from different perspectives, such as overhead and from various angles. Capturing these other views will help you showcase a broader area.
