Learn More »Great product images are one of the most important factors when putting together a digital catalogue - with great images leading to a 3-5% uplift in orders. However, this doesn't mean you need a full scale production of a photoshoot. With a few simple tips and tricks you can take some great product shots just by using an iPhone. In one of our previous posts, we discussed how adding great product images to your digital catalogue can help you increase your orders. Without good images, your customers won't have a good understanding of the products you are selling, and be skeptical of the quality. After all, no one wants to see a catalogue with this: To avoid the dreaded 'No Image Available' you don't need to hire a professional photographer to make your images truly stand out (although, given the increase in sales that typically results, it isn't a bad investment). However, if you're just started out or on a tight budget, you can simply take the photos yourself using a DSLR camera or even an iPhone. Many of us often underestimate the power of mobile phones when it comes to food photography. It is easy to forget that that these small devices can produce some really good artistic results so long as you follow certain photography rules. Proper styling, lighting, and angles all make a difference. Here are seven of our favorite tricks for taking beautiful food photos with your iPhone: Shoot In Natural Light: As much as possible, use natural light when photographing food. It will make your products look more appealing and flattering, and will bring out their true colors. Remember, colors are important in digital catalogues because they give customers an accurate idea of the item. To shoot in natural light, place a table near a window and photograph your food from there, or even get outdoors for better lighting. Be careful not to shoot in direct sunlight, however, as the shadows it will cast can detract from the highlight of your photo - your food. If you've only got one source of natural light (i.e. one window) and you're getting shadows, hold up a piece of white cardboard, paper or even a napkin on the opposite side to reflect the light. Or if it's too much, your white paper can make a great filter between the light and your subject. Never use your iPhone’s flash: When taking food photos, try not to use the automatic flash of your iPhone. Most of the time, it produces a harsh glare that makes your images look low-quality. It’s also not preferable to use artificial lighting, such as led lights or lamps in iPhone food photography because they create an ugly yellow shade on your photos.

Learn More »Potential Health Benefits of Peanut Butter Peanut butter is a concentrated source of nutrition that may offer potential health benefits. One study showed that eating peanuts every day can decrease the overall risk of death by up to 21% – and reduces the occurrence of heart disease by 38%.
Peanut butter is a protein-packed spread popular around the world. It’s made of ground peanuts — often roasted first — blended into a thick paste. The final product contains a range of nutrients that may offer health-boosting benefits. However, it’s important to check the label when buying peanut butter. Many brands today add ingredients like sugar, vegetable oil, and trans fats that can reduce its nutritional value. Natural peanut butter is available at health food stores and specialty grocers, and can be easily found online. Look for a product that contains no additives other than a little salt. You can also make peanut butter at home by blending peanuts in a food processor until you reach your desired texture.
