how do YOU photograph the interior of a bag?

[MissThing]

ssome bags will stay open long enough for you to photograph the interior. if your bag doesn't open by itself do you hold it open and have your hand in the pic (some buyers and sellers don't like this for some reason) or do you prop a bag open with an object such as a pen?

I use a pen or a chopstick (after much struggling to get hand out in time!)

I will usually prop the bag up in the corner of a white box...it seems to help...also if my hand gets in the way at all...I just crop it out
