Product Photo Layout for China-Sourced Products: What to Request Before Uploading

Product photos decide how quickly a customer understands what you sell. If you source from China, do not upload supplier photos without checking whether they match your version, package and included items.

Start with photo purpose

Each image should answer one question: what is it, how is it used, what is included, how big is it, and why should the buyer trust it?

Recommended layout

  1. Main product image.
  2. Product in use.
  3. Detail or material close-up.
  4. Size or dimension image.
  5. Package and included items.
  6. Comparison or version explanation.
  7. Care note or limitation image.

What to request from suppliers

  • Real product photos of the quoted version.
  • Close-up photos of key parts.
  • Packaging photos.
  • Accessory layout photos.
  • Short video if possible.
  • Photos with measurement reference.

If photos are incomplete, do not build a full product page around them. Use Product Risk Report to organize missing product details.

For Amazon and Shopify

Amazon sellers need clear version, packaging and included-item accuracy. Shopify store owners also need images that support brand story and page layout.
