Free photography tip: Tape the poster board into a curve (step 1 of 14 from "Product Photos on a $20 Setup").
Take your white poster board and tape the top edge to a wall or a box behind your table. Let the board curve gently from vertical (back wall) to horizontal (table surface) without a crease. This seamless sweep means there's no visible horizon line in your photos — just continuous white.
Use painter's tape so you don't rip the board. If the board is too small for your product, overlap two boards and tape the seam flat. Replace the board when it gets scuffed or dented — they cost $2.
