According to a survey, approaching 80% of people shopping online expect to see photos of a product that's for sale on a website. That's quite high isn't it? One thing is certain though, that the surveyed % response will go up as consumer expectations will continue to rise, and global situations like the Covid-19 pandemic will [...]
My 'Meet the Maker' blog continues and this is the final part of the series called My Photography Path. So if you've just stumbled across this individual blog you might not be aware that there are 2 previous parts to the whole series. Well, maybe you spotted the 'Part 3' aspect in the title, anyway you [...]
