I'm having a hard time photographing my scarf/hat sets for some reason. You have to get both of them at their best and finding a unique angle with everything clear isn't easy. I don't know whether I prefer the torso shot with the hat stuck on the top or the head with the scarf wrapped around the neck better as a first shot on Etsy.I understand that someone browsing online wants to see exactly what they are getting before they make a commitment to buy. But I wonder what causes someone to click more, a straightforward shot like the second one or something a bit more creative like the top one. I cropped more of the hat than I wanted in order to get a square in the first shot but I think you still get the idea a lot more clearly than the closeups from yesterdays post.
I've decided to focus my energy photographing and listing on Etsy with the sets. I am much more confident that I will be able to sell my reasonably priced scarves at my craft show so I'm not going to waste time photographing them. I would love to hear which of the two shots above would most likely cause you to look further and click on the listing.

The first shot would have me clicking to see other angles. I like it because it looks like it flows rather than just hanging like the second shot.
Good luck with the photography :) love both
I like the first one, Paige. Definitely can see that it is a hat and scarf where the second picture looks like it might be just a scarf. And, like Lin, I'd be clicking others to see more.
I like the 1st shot, especially if you can show more of the hat.
I agree, the first shot works better for me than the second one
I really, REALLY like the first one!
It would make me click!
The first one!
