AI Photoshoot - Generating Images
Any product photo works, including phone photos. The AI identifies the object, removes the background, and generates scenes. Clean, well-lit source photos with the product fully visible give the best results.
Use the formula: Model + Garment + Setting + Lighting + Pose + Mood. Be specific with physical descriptions ("hands in pockets, looking over left shoulder") rather than abstract moods ("confident energy"). The more specific, the better the result.
Yes. Upload a photo and Blend automatically suggests scenes that work best for your product. You can also pick a specific scene/theme from the available list without writing anything.
Selecting a scene directs the AI to generate specifically in that theme (e.g., beach, studio, cafe). The AI matches lighting, shadows, and reflections to the chosen setting for a realistic result.
Colour selection through the Product Recolor feature changes the product's colour variant. For background generation, colour influence comes through scene selection and custom prompt descriptions.
Custom mode lets you write a free-text prompt describing exactly the scene you want, instead of picking from preset themes. Use it when you need a specific setup that is not covered by the default scene options.
Blend supports batch processing for multiple products. For per-generation output count, contact Blend support for the latest limits on your plan.
The AI automatically adds realistic shadows and reflections to blend the product naturally into the generated background. No manual adjustment is needed.
Yes. The AI Photoshoot accepts pre-cut images. If the background is already removed, Blend skips that step and goes straight to scene generation.
Standard image formats including JPG and PNG are accepted.
Contact Blend support at contact@blendnow.com for current input size and resolution limits.
All paid plans export in HD. Blend outputs meet Amazon's listing requirements (minimum 1000px, recommended 2000x2000px).
