Transforming eCommerce fashion photography with AI

November 20, 2023

In eCommerce, high-quality product photography is crucial. It’s the visual representation of your product that can make or break a sale. Traditional photoshoots can be time-consuming and costly.

That’s where Artificial Intelligence (AI) comes in, revolutionizing eCommerce fashion photography, especially for apparel. Let's explore how AI can optimize your on-model eCommerce fashion  photography, making it more efficient and effective.

The importance of on-model eCommerce fashion photography

On-model eCommerce fashion photography showcases products, particularly clothing and accessories, on a model. It gives potential customers a better idea of how the product looks and fits in real life, adding a touch of reality and relatability that flat product images often lack.This type of photography:

  • Enhances the online shopping experience
  • Provides context, and
  • Helps reduce return rates by giving customers a more accurate representation of what they’re buying

However, it involves hiring models, photographers, and studio space, all of which can be costly and time-consuming.

How AI comes into play

AI can streamline the photoshoot process and improve the quality of your on-model images. It automates post-production editing, removing the need for manual photo retouching.
