How To Create On-Model Apparel Photos Without A Photoshoot

• Communicates fit and fabric drape: how sleeves fall, where hems land, how denim stretches.
• Shows scale: necklaces, bags, and prints read true-to-life on people.
• Adds context and lifestyle: shoppers picture themselves wearing it.
• Reduces returns: expectations match reality.

• A Shopify store and access to your product images.
• The Supra AI Photo Studio app: https://apps.shopify.com/supra-ai-photo-studio
• Clear product photos (flat or mannequin shots work best). Higher resolution = better results.

1. Install and open the editor

• Add Supra AI Photo Studio from the Shopify App Store: https://apps.shopify.com/supra-ai-photo-studio
• Open it from your Shopify admin and pick the product you want to enhance.

1. Isolate the product

• Use "Isolate Product" (background remover) to clean the image. This helps the AI read edges, silhouette, and fabric details.
• If the source is soft or grainy, run Auto Enhance and Upscale to sharpen texture without artifacts.

1. Launch AI Try-On

• Open the Virtual Try-On tool. Choose from a library of realistic models or create your own with adjustable skin tone, body type, and pose.
• Keep brand consistency by saving a few “house models” and favorite poses for your catalog.

1. Set pose, angle, and vibe

• Pick a pose that matches your garment: relaxed stance for hoodies, dynamic motion for activewear, side angle for structured jackets.
• Choose lighting that suits your brand (soft daylight, crisp studio, warm lifestyle). Consistency matters across PDPs and collections.

1. Guide the AI for accuracy

• Add short instructions to preserve details: “boxy fit, cropped hem, dropped shoulders, thick rib cuffs, matte cotton knit.”
• Note tricky elements: “logo centered at chest, satin sheen, 3D puff print, transparent straps.” The AI maintains product integrity, and clear guidance helps.

1. Generate and review

• Generate a batch of variations (model diversity, poses, backgrounds). Keep 3–5 winners per product for thumbnails, hero, and secondary images.
• Check edges, text/logo clarity, and fabric drape. Regenerate if you need a different pose or lighting.

1. Add lifestyle context (optional)

• Use Object Placement to put your on-model shot into a scene (street, studio, boutique). Keep it subtle—your product is the star.

1. Publish to Shopify

• One click to publish back to the product’s media gallery from the editor.
• Update your PDP hero, size guide images, and collection thumbnails for a cohesive look.

• Start clean: Remove busy backgrounds before try-on for the best edge fidelity.
• Describe fit precisely: “oversized,” “regular,” “tailored,” “cropped,” “high-rise,” “tapered leg” help the AI honor silhouette.
• Respect texture: Call out “chunky cable knit,” “fine rib,” “brushed fleece,” “silk satin,” “raw denim” so shine and grain render correctly.
• Match the pose to the garment: Hands-in-pocket pose sells hoodies; three-quarter turns flatter blazers; mid-step motion sells athleisure.
• Keep lighting consistent: Choose a repeatable studio or daylight look across the catalog to build trust and speed scannability.
• Show diversity: Offer a few body types and skin tones so shoppers see themselves in your product.
• Use Upscale before final export: Crisp detail increases perceived quality and click-through in grids.

• UGC-style videos: Generate influencer-style clips from your product images. Choose voice, vibe, and setting—great for TikTok and Reels.
• B-Roll product moments: Add slow spins, drops, or fabric ripples while preserving your product’s details.

• Streetwear: Keep neutral studio backdrops, straight-on stance, and a slight rim light. Use a close crop for thumbnails that read bold logos.
• Contemporary fashion: Soft daylight by a window, relaxed posture, side-angle detail frames for seams and drape.
• Activewear: Dynamic poses (lunge, mid-stride), cool lighting, and tight crops on moisture-wicking textures.
• Jewelry: Minimalist backgrounds, tight portraits for scale, side-light to bring out stone facets and metal shine.
• Swimwear: Natural daylight, warm color grade, lifelike skin tone variation, and careful fit descriptors for straps and cups.

• File names: hoodie-black-on-model-front.jpg (include product, color, angle).
• Alt text: “Black cotton hoodie on-model, relaxed fit, dropped shoulders” (describe, don’t stuff keywords).
• Image order: Lead with the clean hero on-model shot, then detail shots and lifestyle variations.
• Consistent cropping: Use uniform aspect ratios (1:1 or 4:5) for a polished grid.

• Built for speed: Go from flat lay to on-model in minutes, right inside your admin.
• True-to-product: The AI preserves design, print placement, and fabric qualities.
• All-in-one: Background remover, Auto Enhance, Upscale, Object Placement, AI Try-On, UGC and B-roll videos—no juggling apps.
• Flexible plans: Start free, scale as you grow.
