What I like to recommend is to take a white table cloth (I got it at Walmart for cheap) or white paper and use it as a back drop outside. Because most of my items are not too big, I lie them down on the cloth and find the best angles to take pictures. Natural light is the best for taking pictures. It helps show the item's natural color; I hardly ever use flash. I see a lot of hats on your shop, is it possible to bring the hat and the model you use outside or somewhere where there is natural lighting? It doesn't always have to be outside, too : )
