I thought I’d finish off this week’s theme by talking about backgrounds for photos or videos. Backgrounds are something that can help or possibly hinder a photo or video. You can use things you have around the house. Yes, they sell flat lay backgrounds but you can also be creative and use your own. I thought i’d share my tips and tricks that may help you when you need to take photos or videos for product reviews. items used for photos:
