My wife J is a potter, and makes things that she then takes to sell at craft fairs.
Her website (jaynerandallpottery.com) is a simple blog affair, which it can be when it's freed of all the online commerce requirements.
She doesn't want to sell online - it takes away the human face-to-face meeting and chatting to her customers she loves. She doesn't want to become a factory-bot, her customers only being order numbers on a bit of paper, and her just churning out items to fulfil the orders all day.
She wants to enjoy the creating and making, and then the selling of what she has made directly to the people who are set to enjoy them. It has to be fun.
For this year she has made some ornamental but practical flower dishes, designed to be threaded onto a single steel pole and placed out in the garden, either to be seed trays or water bowls for the birds. She wanted to test a couple of prototypes in our garden first.
I have of course become her product photographer. This time it wasn't just a product shot for the new dishes required – the request was for a product-in-action shot for them.
Objective achieved.
