Photography and editing with illustrator

Hello
we are based in Derby and we have an eBay store (as well as amazon and a website in process) with 25+ products.

I am looking for someone to make the photos more appealing, it will involve taking photographs, editing them , examples of the products and competitors are

If I was to take an example of the shotgun cabinet. We have a basic shotgun cabinet without any props (the guns ect) similar to link http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTjwFKhkFpqGQiCiHVOSjRGKENc-vfYeK48H_8GL36sDCt_O3t9

The first option i have will be to take a photo of the cabinet exterior and interior and then additional photos of details like the lock, the internal gun holder and a few other specifications. Total will be about 7 photos. But i think this option will not display the cabinet in a competitive form

The second option will be to have the main exterior photo, some close photos of the cabinets main features like the lock, internal gun holder, and then layer the actual guns (props) onto the main picture and text , if this is possible, 7 photos again. To get it similar to linkhttp://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR7ZtJLQ4TL9Y6RVQgLFTUYByPRMQtjEpaH8X5h5YtMJF0F_rVm9Q

Generally speaking the more appealing photos are the ones that have additional props and text and i prefer to use readymade ones as opposed to hiring and setting up props.

On both options could you please advise on an approximate cost per product

Thank you
Jo
