Unlike selling at craft fairs or events your customers can’t touch or feel your products on Etsy, so how do you sell tactile, well-crafted items online? Many sources say that your shop photography is the most important part of successfully selling on Etsy and is often an ongoing learning process.

Why is photography so important for your shop? They say a picture is worth a thousand words and this is so true for Etsy. A great photograph is the first thing to catch a buyer’s attention, and gives them an idea of how the finished product will look.

Creating a good first impression will make you look professional and trustworthy as well as showing your customer the details that you can’t put into words.
