Start from this template

Apply AI-based background and object editing
- Use the AI Image Editor to:

Create a reusable “house style”

Best Practices for High-Quality Product Images
Based on common ecommerce and marketplace guidelines (see Amazon’s image requirements and Shopify’s product photography best practices), the following patterns work well:
Neutral or white backgrounds
- Ideal for product pages and marketplaces
- Keeps focus on the item and avoids visual noise
Clear, single product focus
- Make sure the primary product is not obscured by props or clutter
- Reserve lifestyle scenes for supporting images, not the main hero shot
Consistent framing and scale
- Similar crop and perspective across your catalog improves perceived quality
- Products should be roughly the same size within the frame
High resolution and sharpness
- Consider pairing this template with the AI Image Upscaler or Unblur Image when working from low-res or older assets
