Should I include reflections in isolated images? presumably designers could add their own. Additionally, is it good to crop as close as possible or keep some white space around the object? (My understanding is that extra space around the object would upset designers trying to get the biggest image possible at the lowest price)

Isolation=No shadows;no reflections

Over white= complete with shadows,reflections etc.,

If you are isolating on white,then white negative space is a waste of time. Ken

Just wanted to say Ken i have the same Knife and have a few shots but still need to get it to look like the one you have i submitted one with some light shadows and was rejected i see i will need to work on it a little more and then it will pass nice knife to have my knife has a ligh on it in place of one or two things yours has.
