How to photograph it

  • Shoot three-quarter on at seat height so the seat, back slats and all four legs are visible.
  • Count the slats and stretchers in every result. They should match the real chair.
  • Take your own close-ups of the joints and the grain. Buyers of handmade furniture look for them.
  • Selling a set? Shoot one chair well, then add one real photo of the whole set together.

Can I sell furniture with AI room photos?

Use them as extra photos that show the style and setting, and keep at least one real photo of the piece. Say in the listing that room scenes are styled previews.

What makes a good furniture studio photo?
