How to Use High-Quality Lifestyle Photography to Boost Sales:

Ever wanted to take your photography skills to the next level and make a profit for either yourself or help advertise a friend or families business?

Shopify is an amazing tool worth investing time exploring & learning. The following article features a plugin titled, LookBooks, and a customizable theme, Vogue. Vogue is the first Shopify theme to feature a built-in lookbook template, which displays products from your collections in an attractive, editorial-style grid. Once you apply the template to a page, the theme automatically pulls images from your product pages to produce a lookbook that customers can browse in the same way they might flip through a fashion or home living magazine.

Customers browsing the lookbook are not only given a chance to view products in context, they’re able to see key purchasing information, including product name, price and description. Most importantly, they can add a product to their cart at any point. Another place Vogue leverages high-quality, editorial style photography is on the product page. Full-bleed imagery and an infinite scroll feature (which automatically loads other products from the collection) mimic the experience of flipping through an in-store clothing rack or a physical catalog where all their options are presented in one place.

Check it out and let us know what you think!
