AI image generation for products
Generating lifestyle and background imagery that holds up next to real product photography.
Imagery · Beginner · 7 min
Generated imagery works best as context around a product, not as the product itself. Backgrounds, scene settings and lifestyle framing are safe; the item you're selling should be photographed.
Describe lighting, surface, camera angle and mood rather than adjectives like premium. Specificity is what separates a usable image from an obviously synthetic one.
Keep a consistent set of scene descriptions across a collection so the imagery reads as one shoot rather than a series of unrelated renders.
Steps
- Write one scene description covering surface, light source and angle.
- Generate three variations and pick the most neutral.
- Composite your real product photo onto the generated scene.
- Reuse the same scene description across the collection.
