I keep seeing these being used for selling art, problem ismost of the people using them do not understand scaling, they trying to sell artwork that is A3, landscape, and it’s pictured on a wall above the sofa, and its as .ong as the sofa, buyers get the wrong impression, or they assume that you have a very small sofa.
Use a white bed sheet on the wall to use as a bacdrop to your art, also use ‘Auto’ for the whit balance in you camera settings.
If you are having good weather, take photos outside in natural light, also near the edge of your photo have a piece of white card and black card, then when you edit your photos you can adjust the light balance, as you then have samples of whit and black, once corrected, crop out the samples to your finished size, don’t forget to crop to square format, much better for social media
I’m off to bed now, good night

Good ideas, thanks! I’ve set my sights on getting some white sheets and things to present my art better, and am going to be investing in a ‘proper’ camera and tripod rather than relying on my smartphone which, despite being generally great at taking photos, doesn’t seem well suited to this sort of thing.
I guess I’m going to be taking a trip to hobbycraft!

Your prints are lovely and not overprices, although I have to say I am not keen on that red background you have on the photos, it’s quite distracting and it may also be giving your backgrounds a pink tinge (I am presuming the prints have a white background of course.)
