AI Photoshoot: how to generate professional product photos
The AI Photoshoot feature helps you create high-quality, professional-looking product images directly in Claid Studio — no photo studio or complex setup required.
With this tool, you can style your product in different settings using two flexible modes: Precise and Creative. Each mode is designed for a different type of workflow, so you can choose the one that best fits your project.
Precise Mode
In Precise Mode, you stay in full control of how your product is displayed.
- Fixed placement: Your product remains exactly where you place it on the canvas.
💡 Note: Do not to place the product super close to the canvas edge.
- Custom aspect ratios: Choose from common ratios (1:1, 16:9, 4:5, etc.) to match the platform where the image will be used.
- Output resolution control: Define the size and resolution of your final image.
This mode is best if you:
- Need consistency across a set of images (e.g., product catalogs, e-commerce listings).
- Already know how you want your product framed and sized.
- Want to maintain strict visual guidelines.
💡 Tip: Use Precise Mode when preparing product shots for marketplaces like Amazon, Shopify, or Etsy, where consistent framing is key.
Creative Mode
Creative Mode allows the AI to take the lead in positioning and sizing your product.
- Automatic placement: The AI chooses the best position and scale for your product. (The option to move the object on canvas is disabled.)
- Flexible input:
- Write a prompt describing the setting, background, or mood you want. Example: “Bright kitchen counter with natural morning light” or “Minimalist studio setup with soft shadows.”
- Or, upload an inspiration image. If you provide an inspiration image, there’s no need to write a prompt — the AI will use that as a style reference.
Creative Mode is ideal when you:
- Want quick, varied ideas for how your product could appear in real-life environments.
- Are experimenting with different backgrounds, moods, or brand styles.
- Need engaging lifestyle imagery for social media, ads, or campaigns.
💡 Tip: Be descriptive in your prompt. Mention the background, lighting, and atmosphere to guide the AI more effectively.
