Some ideas about photography:

Buy two pieces of flat gray foamcore board, to use as a base and backboard for "shots."

Get two table lamps with bright florescent bulbs. Drape the shades with very light fabric, or better yet a translucent plastic fabric like a shower curtain liner. Put the lamps to either side of the shot, to provide diffuse light. Avoid using the camera flash.

Use a tripod! You can find them cheap at thrift stores.
