Do I need to mark where to place the product on the model?
No. Describe the placement in words: 'place the necklace on the model's neck' or 'put the sunglasses on the model's face.' The AI understands body-part references. Use markers only for precise positioning like exact earring placement or when the AI keeps choosing the wrong spot.
How do I put my product on a model photo without a photoshoot?
Upload any model photo as your main image — stock photos work perfectly. Click '+ Add reference image' and upload your product photo. Describe the placement and the AI composites them together in 30 seconds. You get realistic on-model product shots without hiring a model, renting a studio, or learning Photoshop.
Is there a free tool to composite products onto models for e-commerce?
Yes. EditThisPic lets you composite any product onto any model photo completely free, with no signup and no watermark. Upload your product as a reference image, describe how to place it, and download the result. One free edit per week, or purchase credits starting at $1.99 for more.
What product photo works best as a reference?
Clean product photos on white or solid backgrounds composite most cleanly. The product should be well-lit, in focus, and photographed at an angle similar to how it would appear on the model. For clothing, a flat lay or mannequin shot works well. For jewelry, a close-up with clean edges is ideal.
Can I use stock model photos for my product listings?
Check the stock photo license for commercial use rights. Many stock photos allow commercial compositing. EditThisPic itself has no restrictions — you can upload any model photo as your main image and composite your product onto it. Just ensure you have the right to use the model photo commercially.
Will the composite look realistic enough for Amazon or Shopify listings?
When done well, yes. The AI matches lighting, scale, and shadows automatically. The key is using a high-quality product photo and a model photo with similar lighting. Most sellers find the results indistinguishable from real photoshoots, especially for jewelry, accessories, and simple clothing items.
Can I composite clothing onto a model from a flat lay photo?
Yes. Upload the model photo as your main image, then upload the flat lay as a reference. Describe how the garment should drape: 'place this dress on the model with natural fabric draping and wrinkles.' The AI transforms the flat product into a realistic on-body appearance. Results are best with simpler garments; complex draping may need 2-3 attempts.
How is this different from the product photo editor?
The product photo editor enhances single product images — adjusting backgrounds, lighting, and color. This tool specifically composites a product FROM one photo ONTO a model in another photo. It's a two-photo operation: product photo + model photo = on-model lifestyle shot. Use this when you need your actual product shown on a person.
