You could try different things like fabric or craft paper (with or without patterns) and small props like flowers. :slightly_smiling_face:

I use a variety of different things. The one I think I like most is dry erase boards.

I also enjoy finding contact paper, faux tiles, etc and putting them on a thin piece of ply.

Sometimes it is even fun to make miniatures to showcase designs and ideas

Your pictures are so clean! I love it! Do you use some app or software for the background?

After I take the photos I pull them into Lightroom to edit the color/contrast/etc. That is also where I clone the edges if my background didn’t cover the whole area :slight_smile: or I use generative fill in photoshop.

Your photos are amazing! :heart:

Thank you!

I am having a hard time taking pretty pictures too! :sweat_smile: and sometimes I don’t have time or patience to edit so I have been using this method for years…

I printed my logo tiled and used it as background :sweat_smile: I used to have bigger ones printed on tarpaulin when I made bigger projects

sometimes I use a fabric as background
