Hey there! It’s Garinè (well… you can call me “G”) – Your product photographer, and hopefully someone who will also inspire you to reach your greatest potential!
One of the common questions that I get from E-commerce business owners is ” how do I get white background photography without wasting hours on editing the image?”
Well… I have actually asked the same question after spending sleepless nights over a period of months to figure that out not only to get white background photography but most importantly to prove to people around me that I am capable of achieving major things even though I’m a female…
Yes, you read that right…
A Female!
A quick story about me: You probably figured out by now that my family is quite conservative and old school.
I love and appreciate everything they have done for me, but the idea of a “female” should not be working and that’s a “men’s job” was something that has always bothered me.
Long story short, one day my family decided to take their jewelry business online and start an E-commerce website…
Their search for a product photographer for their business was unsuccessful.
And yes, that was a great opportunity for me to jump in and become their “product photographer”
At that time, I had just got done with my bachelor’s degree in business management (and of course I wasn’t supposed to go to work) So I decided to step up and tell them I will be the one who will take care of the photography…
Oh by the way with ZERO photography background!!
For some reason, I thought it was going to be a piece of cake…
Well… guess what? it was a nightmare!
I spent months and sleepless nights to figure this out because this was my opportunity for me to prove myself.
Finally, things started to get better. I was able to figure this whole thing out and my photos started to look crisp, clean and inviting…
Did I think about giving up? Oh, many times!
Was it easy? Heck no!
I stuck to it and now I proudly own and operate my own successful product photography business…
If there is one thing I can tell you is:
Life is too short not to work on reaching your greatest potential!
If you have a big dream but thought it was impossible to achieve… Make sure you face it, because all the fun inspiration and impact is on the other side of obstacles and fear.
