How do I deal with fingerprints?

Prevent them. Steel shows every contact point under directional light and retouching is slow and imperfect.

How should I communicate capacity?

With a scale reference or a kitchen context, since litres are abstract and capacity is what buyers compare.

What shows pan quality?

The base in profile. A thick clad or encapsulated base distributes heat and is invisible from above, where a thin stamped base looks the same.

Does handle attachment matter?

It is the usual failure point. Riveted handles outlast welded or screwed ones, so the attachment deserves a frame.

How do I photograph non-stick?

Honestly and with restraint. The surface reads as a uniform dark field, and its quality is genuinely hard to convey, which makes overstatement tempting.

Where do compatibility claims go?

In text. Oven-safe temperatures and induction compatibility are specifications rather than things an image can show.

Is the free generation really free?

Yes. One per day, watermarked and capped at 1024px. Signing up gives you 20 credits and clean full-resolution files with full commercial rights.

Why this is worth getting right

Cookware combines the two hardest photographic problems in one object: highly reflective surfaces and a size that only means something in context. Stainless steel and polished aluminium mirror the entire room, so the technique is controlling what the pan can see rather than adding light, and a curved interior compresses the whole environment into a bowl-shaped reflection that is unforgiving of clutter. Fingerprints are the practical menace on steel, visible under any directional light and far easier to prevent than to retouch. Capacity is the comparison buyers actually make, and it is abstract in litres, so a scale reference or a size shown in a kitchen context does more work than a specification line. Base construction is the quality story in pans: a thick encapsulated or clad base distributes heat evenly and is visible in profile, while a thin stamped base is not, and that difference is most of the price gap between two pans that look identical from above. Handle attachment is worth its own frame, since riveted handles outlast welded or screwed ones and a loose handle is the usual failure. Coating and finish need honest treatment, because a non-stick surface photographs as a uniform dark field and its texture and quality are genuinely hard to convey, which makes overstating it tempting and unwise. Oven-safe and induction compatibility belong in text as specifications.

Tips that actually help

Control what the pan reflects, since a curved polished interior compresses the whole room into a bowl-shaped reflection.
Prevent fingerprints rather than retouching them, because steel shows every one under directional light.
Give capacity a scale reference, as litres are abstract and capacity is the comparison buyers actually make.
Show the base in profile, because a thick clad base and a thin stamped one look identical from above and differ in price.
Frame the handle attachment, since riveted handles outlast welded ones and a loose handle is the usual failure.
