A wooden surface gives a product a warm, natural base and suits brands that sell on craft and materials. Herofab places the product from a phone photo on wood, at the angle chosen, with the shape, the colours and the label lettering briefed to stay as photographed.

The product is briefed to keep its colours. Compare a white cap or a silver case with the real thing before the image is published. 2. ### Grain against small text Wood grain runs in lines, and behind a low, flat product those lines sit right next to the label. Text has to stay crisp and upright. Read every word on the result, the small print as well, and choose a front angle if the top-down view crowds the label. 3. ### Brown products on brown A tan wallet, a wooden comb or a cork-stoppered jar can sink into the surface. The soft contact shadow separates the two; no shadow leaves them to merge. If the edge is still hard to find, marble, linen or a studio ground gives more contrast. ## Photographing a product for a wooden scene. - Place the product on a plain surface in even daylight and photograph the side that carries the label or the face, square to the camera. - Close lids and caps unless the open product is the point, and wipe fingerprints from glass and metal before the shot. - Keep the whole product in the frame with some space around it; a base or a cap cut off by the edge of the photo cannot be added back faithfully. ## Wood background product photos, answered. **Which products look right on wood?** Products with a natural or handmade story: skincare in glass, candles, soaps, leather goods, watches with leather straps, ceramics and wooden accessories. Very glossy or technical products usually read better on a studio ground or with a reflection. **Can the wood image be the only image of the product?** It works better next to a plain one. A styled surface sets a mood, and a buyer still wants a clean view of the product alone. A packshot on white for the main image and a wooden scene among the further images cover both. **Can I supply my own wooden table as the background?** Yes. Next to the built-in wood scene there is the option of the seller's own background image. Upload a photo of the table or the shelf and the product is placed in it; the product itself is briefed to stay as photographed. **How much does it cost?** 4 credits per image, plus one credit for 4K. The cost is shown before you generate, and if a job fails the credits are returned. The 20 free credits at sign-up cover 5 images with this tool.
