Key facts
- Shelfcanvas, an AI product photography tool for marketplace sellers, builds a new scene around your real product photo.
- Your product is cut out and placed back with its original pixels, so labels, logos and colors stay as you shot them. In our 12-category test, every product went back in place with a color difference under 1.2 ΔE.
- Choose from 27 ready-made scenes — 21 sorted by product category plus 6 classic surfaces — or describe your own.
- Each image is 2K and costs 4 credits.
- Fine chains and clear glass are handled with their own steps so they stay true to your photo.
A styled lifestyle shot needs a photographer and a setup; a Shelfcanvas scene uses 4 credits.

How to do an AI photoshoot for your product
- 01
Upload a product photo
One product, in focus, with nothing covering it. Any background works.
- 02
Pick a scene or describe one
Choose a scene thumbnail, or type the setting you want in Describe a scene (optional). Choose how many images you want.
- 03
Generate in Studio
Press Generate (4 credits per image). Log in or create an account if you haven't — your photo and settings are kept. Download, or move on to a white background, upscale or marketplace sizes.
Photoshoot AI that keeps your product as it is
- Shelfcanvas cuts out your product, generates only the scene around it, and places your original product back with a soft contact shadow — so labels, logos and colors don't drift. In our test across 12 product types, from a tea tin with printed text to a fine necklace, every product went back in place with no stray text or extra objects in the scene.
Why AI product photos look fake — and what our scenes do instead
| What gives it away | What our scenes do |
|---|---|
| The label or logo is redrawn | Your product is your original photo, placed back after the scene is made |
| The product floats with no shadow | Every scene adds a soft contact shadow where the product meets the surface |
| The light doesn't match | Each ready-made scene sets one light direction for the surface and the shadow together |
| Props look like they come with it | Scenes use a few small props tied to how the product is used — no extra items, text or logos |
In an 850-product benchmark by Photoroom, the best general image model kept the whole product intact in only 29% of edits — which is why we don't let the model touch the product at all.
Write an AI photoshoot prompt in one line
Describe the surface, the light and the mood — "white marble, soft window light from the left, eucalyptus leaves". Keep props simple and related to the product, so shoppers don't think they come with the order. The product itself is never generated from your words; it's always your photo.
For brands launching new products
New scenes for every launch and season. No reshoot, and the label stays exactly as shot.
One scene style across a collection. Use the same scene template for every product in a drop.
Clothing on AI models from a flat lay. Show fit and styling without booking a model.
Planning a launch set
- Start from a sharp, front-facing photo of each product.
- Pick one scene template and use it for the whole collection.
- Download for your store, then make extra versions for social and ads.
Scenes are for gallery images, ads and social posts. On Amazon, the main image needs a pure white background — make it with the white background photo editor — and scenes go in the other image slots, where your real label and color still have to match what you ship.
Lifestyle product photography vs. AI scenes
- Explore a setting in moments instead of waiting for a set to be built and photographed.
- Create just one scene or a series, without meeting a studio's image minimum.
- Work from a product photo you already have, avoiding sample shipping and back-and-forth over props.
- For a different mood, regenerate with another setting; keep the same preset across a batch for a cohesive product series.
Traditional photography suits projects that need a physical set, carefully directed lighting and hands-on styling.
FAQ
AI Photoshoot uses 4 credits per image.
Your product is placed back with its original pixels, so labels, logos and colors stay as you shot them. The scene around it is generated.
Use scenes for Amazon's other image slots, and make the main image with the white background photo editor to meet the pure white background requirement.
Yes. Type the setting in Describe a scene, or pick a ready-made scene and add a detail. Whatever you write changes the scene, never the product.
Shoot the bottle with the label facing the camera. The label in the result is your original photo, so it stays as readable as your shot.
Keep props simple and related to how the product is used, and say in your listing what's in the box. Our ready-made scenes use a few small props for that reason.
The scene can set a warm, candle-lit mood, but your candle stays as you photographed it. For a real burning shot, take one photo with the candle lit and use it as your source.
Yes. Fine chains get their own step so links aren't redrawn; clear glass can show a little of the original background through it, so check bottles before you publish.
As many as you like — each image is 4 credits, and you can generate different scenes from the same upload.
Yes. Images you make are yours to use in listings, ads and social posts, at 2K with no watermark.
Yes. Use the same ready-made scene for every product so the collection looks like one shoot. When the season changes, switch the whole line to a holiday scene in one go — no reshoot.
Usually the product was redrawn, it floats without a shadow, or the light doesn't match the scene. Our scenes keep your original product, add a contact shadow and set the light direction with the scene.
