As human nature, everyone likes to see beautiful visuals, be it physical decorations, architectures, or photos, and the list goes on. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. In the business world, photos can make or break a brand. With the current digital age, images are everywhere, from the various social media and eCommerce platforms to websites, publicity, to physical advertisement billboards, and brochures.
In the context of eCommerce, while consumers are unable to see the physical products/services when browsing online, but they can see them through photos on the platforms. Photographs allow consumers to visualize and see what they are getting. Products shown in a professional manner would positively affect the perception of a business, increasing the value of the product. It also creates a positive impression, memory, and mood, which encourage growth in sales. In addition, product photo captured professionally also aids in online presence, with a positive overall presence and perception of the business, and brand awareness, which goes a long way, especially for long term growth.
On the other hand, low-quality images can have the reverse effect, which not only damages potential consumers’ opinion of your product. It also suggests the same about your business, brand, company’s culture, services, and as well as your perception and attitude towards your business.
With the cost involved to get professionally captured photos, some may opt for “off-the-shelf” photographs from online sources as an alternative. While photographs from those alternative sources may aid to a certain extent, but they are not photographs of your actual business, brand, products, and services. As such, they provide an inaccurate impression and inaccurate information of your business, which is not the best way to exhibit it to anybody, be it potential consumers or investors or collaboration partners.
Therefore, professional photography is crucial to business with a diverse role, which has a significant positive presence.
