BEAUTIFUL PRODUCTS SHOULD LOOK BEAUTIFUL
WHAT COLOR IS THAT
Product photography can be time consuming, but StyleShoots
debuted their horizontal, vertical and magic mannequin, to create
beautiful images for ecommerce sites. By combining professional
camera equipment and easy-to-use iPad controls, the system allows
small businesses to develop product pages that look as good as if
they were outsourced. STYLESHOOTS
ere’s no substitute for beautiful colors, and SwatchMate
understands that. Recreating color that is inspiring was next to
impossible because cameras capture ambient light that washes out
and lightens colors, but this one touch device steals color directly
from the objects you touch it to. e SwatchMate is bluetooth
enabled and saves the color in three formats, making it possible to
take home colors from anywhere. FAST COMPANY
