"When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs” Ansel Adams. Photography is the art form of the modern-day since everyone has access to a camera and highlevel editing software. Product photography involves capturing products with the intention of displaying, advertising or highlighting certain features of a product. It existed even before the age of the internet and can be traced back to the early 20th century when photography and advertising merged. In the present era product photography is most commonly utilized by e-commerce stores or on social media and it facilitates customers not just with the specifics of the products being sold but also with images of what they would be purchasing. It is everywhere, from advertisements on Instagram to the clothing piece purchased while browsing through shops. It's impossible to go anywhere without seeing product photography in some shape, way, and form around us.
