Product Photography - Black Clothing (pic inside)

[Ballistics]

I think the first photo is just fine. In the others, the color look a little faded.

Just for curiosity, is it a BJJ gi?

Yes it is.

Ya I don't think it's blown out, but sometimes the sorrounding area emphasizes or takes from something, maybe a light colour background might make the black clothing stand out the way you need, just a thought

The issue I am having is the detail within the gi itself. Even changing the background to a grey or a light blue doesn't help.

I guess I don't really see what is wrong with the first one, what about it do you want to get better? Unless you put it on Chuck Norris I don't think much photo editing is going to influence sales.

This isn't for sales, but for my blog. I review Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gear.

This is another I am working on. I am slowly trying to learn how to work with what I have ( a single speedlight). I might buy a reflector to help as well.

i think the original is fine. if you brighten it a bit, just state that its black. I don't think its a big deal

I would be tempted to shoot it on a black background, black on black can look great but lighting needs to be good
