Meanwhile, you need to photograph the back and sides as well.

Also, it’s important to present clothing online from front-to-back, side-to-side, and up-close. If photographing a zip-up hoodie, for example, include side views of the arms, as well as the backside with the hood. When you photoshop the photos you will need them for your revision.
