Taking Better Pictures
The overall quality and composition of your photographs is a critical factor to my success in selling your machines at top dollar. Please take the time and care necessary to increase those odds.
-
Your “main” photo should include the entire machine, see below for examples.
-
Use a high quality camera and use a tripod if available.
-
Take large format photos (and do not crop them), always send the originals.
-
Always take photos prior to disassembly.
-
Don’t hide flaws, they are common (small rips in upholstery, scratches on the frame, etc...).
-
Take multiple photos from different angles (include close ups of upholstery, weight stacks, hand grips, etc.....
-
To the best of your ability, try to isolate each machine and minimize background objects.
-
Use as much light as necessary. Natural light is best if you have that option.
-
Never send “stock photos” and say that your unit is just like this one. I can not post these.
-
Clean machines prior to taking photos, especially if they have been in storage.
