Product photography is the art of taking pictures of various products.  It involves enhancing the way products look for commercial and advertisement purposes. It is the amalgamation of the art of photography and the marketing of products. The photograph is taken in such a way that one look from it will spark consumer interest.   Anyone with a keen eye, an imaginative mind and an intimate knowledge of a camera and lighting can be a product photographer.
