A Guide to My Favorite Photography Props for Product Shoots
Geometric Blocks
Geometric white blocks are perfect for adding a modern, minimalist touch. I like using white blocks so I can easily adjust colors in Photoshop, giving each image the exact vibe I want. These versatile shapes work for almost any product, from skincare items to tech gadgets.

Arcs and Stair Blocks
These blocks add a soft, sculptural element that’s ideal for smaller items like lipstick, jewelry, and cosmetics. They provide a visually pleasing backdrop with curved and straight lines, making products stand out while keeping the focus on them.

Silk Fabrics
A soft, flowing backdrop can add elegance, especially for luxurious products like perfumes. I use white silk fabric as a versatile choice, perfect for almost any product. I also keep black and red fabrics on hand for dramatic effects, but white remains my go-to for its timeless appeal

Reflector Cards
I rely heavily on white reflector cards to bounce light back into shadows, adding brightness to darker areas. I recommend skipping the gold version—I find that the white side offers the most natural look..

For a sleek, modern feel, acrylic reflective surfaces in black and white are excellent. These surfaces create clean reflections and add a professional touch, perfect for products that benefit from a polished, glossy look

I use artificial palm leaves to add natural, tropical vibes. These leaves work well for backgrounds or as a foreground element to create depth. They’re a simple yet effective way to make your shot feel more organic and lively
