How to create a new background for a product photo

Before you start

Start with the whole product visible and enough room for a natural shadow. A simple source background gives the model less to untangle. Transparent glass, fine handles, and shiny metal need special attention during review because their appearance depends on the surrounding scene.

Step by step

1. Upload one product image

   Open the product background generator, add the source, and sign in if prompted. Keep a copy of the original nearby so you can compare the result.

2. Select the background style

   Choose a clean white background for a plain catalog composition, or a studio or lifestyle preset for a contextual image. Match the scene to the real size and purpose of the product.

3. Set the crop if necessary

   Leave the preset defaults in place for a first attempt. Customize contains the aspect ratio and other controls. Leave extra space when the store may crop the image differently on mobile.

4. Generate after checking the estimate

   Review the points estimate and generate explicitly. Compare the item in the result with the original before saving a new listing image.

What to check in the result

Check product color, packaging, edges, and label text before judging the background. A realistic shadow should touch the surface below the object and follow the same light direction as the scene. Look for doubled edges around handles and see-through areas that became opaque.

If the result needs another attempt

If props obscure the product, simplify the scene and ask for more empty space. If the model invents product details, change only the background with a clearer source. Use a transparent PNG cutout when you need exact separation for a layout rather than a newly generated scene. Review marketplace rules before publishing.
