Importance of Booth Shots: Booth SHot by Julie Sutter-Blair.
Your booth shot can either make or break an artist in the Art Fair scene. Yes your work is the most important part of the application process under consideration, however, a poorly thought out booth display shot will cause an artist not to be accepted into the show even though their work is extraordinary. Here are some tips when taking your booth shot.
#1 Where to Take your Booth Shot
The best place to take your booth shot is usually not at a show. You need to be able to control the environment as much as possible. You want the proper lighting and distance for a great booth shot. Some artists hire professional photographers to take their booth shot in a controlled indoor studio and some set up their booths on a cloudy day in their backyards.
#2 Less is More
The jurors do not want to see a cluttered booth. We want to be able to see your strongest pieces not everything you want to sell. A symmetrical booth is also easier to look at.
#3 Clean is Key

#4 Don't Use Your Cell Phone
Do not use your cell-phone to take your photo. Use a tripod and a quality camera.
#5 No Signs or Banners
No signs or banners. Your name can not be displayed in your booth shot because of the blind jury.
