The $0 Studio Setup
You need: a window (natural light source), white poster board (background), and your phone. Place the product on white poster board near a window. Use another white board as a reflector on the opposite side to fill shadows.

- Tap to focus on the product, not the background
- Use the timer to avoid camera shake
