Give every product photo depth where flat images fall short
Fix flat, floating product photos in seconds
Photos without shadows can make products look like they are floating in space, which can feel out of place on marketplaces and product pages. With Photoroom’s AI Shadow Generator, you can add natural-looking shadows that help your product sit more realistically in the frame. It gives your image a sense of depth and makes it easier for people to focus on the product itself.
Show real shape and texture in every product photo
Without shadows, product photos can look flat, making it harder to see the actual shape and surface of the item. Adding realistic shadows helps define edges, curves, and materials so the product feels more true to life. With Photoroom’s AI Shadow Generator, even a simple pack shot can show more texture and dimension, helping people get a better sense of what they are buying.
Create ready-to-publish product photos with no editing experience
Adding realistic shadows used to require complicated software and lots of manual work. With Photoroom’s AI product photography tools, you can skip the layers and fine-tuning and get clean results in a couple of steps. Once your shadows are in place, you can keep going by generating a new background or staging your product in a real setting using AI.
Inconsistent or missing shadows can make similar products look like they were shot in different places. Start with an AI generated shadow, then fine tune its intensity, blur, length, color, and position so the shadow matches your lighting and background in each image. Photoroom’s AI Shadow Generator helps your product photos stay natural and consistent, even when you are working through large catalogs.
What is an AI shadow generator, and how does it work?
An AI shadow generator is a tool that analyzes your product photo and the light in the scene, then automatically creates a matching shadow under or behind the product. In Photoroom, you upload your image, choose your settings, and the AI builds a shadow with the right direction, softness, and shape for you.
Can I add realistic shadows to product photos automatically?
Yes, you can upload a product photo and let Photoroom generate a realistic shadow in a few seconds. The AI handles the heavy lifting, and you can make quick tweaks to intensity, blur, length, color, and position if you want a more custom look.
Can I create natural-looking shadows for photos shot on white or transparent backgrounds?
Yes, you can create natural-looking shadows for photos shot on white or transparent backgrounds. The AI treats the background as a surface, then adds a shadow that makes the product look grounded instead of floating.
How does Photoroom make shadows look natural and consistent across images?
Photoroom analyzes light direction, angle, and product shape to generate a shadow that fits each image. You can reuse the same shadow settings across your catalog so images share a similar look, which helps keep your product photos consistent from one listing to the next.
How can adding realistic shadows make my product photos look more professional?
Realistic shadows add depth and make products feel anchored in the scene, instead of cut out or flat. That extra sense of realism helps your images feel more trustworthy to shoppers.
