Product Photography and Marketing Content Generation

Problem Statement

Product photoshoots are costly and slow. Brands need multiple contextual images for ads, marketplaces, and campaigns, but reshooting products in new locations or themes increases time and budget.

AI Implementation Approach

Use generative image outpainting and masking to place an existing product image into multiple realistic environments while preserving the product’s exact shape, color, and branding.

Input

Industry

• Retail

• eCommerce

• consumer brands

• footwear and apparel manufacturers

Output

Image with masking prompt suggesting which part of the image to preserve, for example: “Device at the centre.”

Output 1

Output 2

Prompt: “Cinematic low key product photography of the product against a dark gradient background. Single rim light highlighting edges, subtle top light, high contrast, premium dramatic mood, ultra sharp focus, commercial photography style.”

Prompt: Modern product photography of the product on a soft pastel gradient background. Studio lighting with gentle highlights, minimalistic composition, premium brand aesthetic, photorealistic, high detail.
