COPY SPACE: The top fifth and bottom fifth are smooth unbroken black velvet apart from the cropped balls at the corners. FRAME: 50 mm perspective, deep focus, no horizon.

Make it yours: Use a ring photo taken from above. This one was shot at a high angle, so the ring has no contact shadow and looks placed on top; add "a soft shadow under the ring" if that happens to you.

SCENE: A loud, bright offer moment: one saturated lemon-yellow sweep and a solid black base, nothing else. A seamless lemon-yellow paper sweep rises behind the product area; a solid matte black plinth band runs across the lower part.

A black room box with floor and two walls meeting at a corner; light strips run along both floor-wall seams toward the product area.

LIGHT: Soft contact shadow under each box and the streamer. Hard light from upper left; the foil catches one bright highlight. Top-down gift flat-lay photograph; boxes and paper are plain, unprinted and unmarked. Near-black with champagne gold as the only accent. COPY SPACE: The lower half is a smooth unbroken near-black field for the product area; boxes stay inside the top quarter. FRAME: 50 mm perspective, deep focus, no horizon.

Make it yours: Put your own small products in the three boxes later, as separate photos, so each item stays real.

SCENE: A night-market display grid: a black board with four equal bays and thin volt-green light in the grooves. A matte black board has four equal recessed bays split by thin grooves; the lower-right bay is the reserved product area. Matte black board with shallow recessed bays; each groove holds a thin glowing volt-green line. No loose props; the glowing grooves are the only decoration. LIGHT: Soft contact shadow in each bay. Even overhead light keeps all four bays readable; the green groove glow adds a faint green edge. Top-down graphic product display photograph; every surface is plain and unmarked. Black with volt green as the only color. COPY SPACE: The top fifth above the grid is a smooth unbroken black band; the empty bays stay plain black for later items. FRAME: 50 mm perspective, deep focus, no horizon.

Make it yours: Change "volt-green" to "hot pink" to match a pink sale; keep "the empty bays stay plain black".
