How to Fix Amateur Product Photos
-
Upload your amateur product photo
Drop your phone photo into EditThisPic. Any quality level works - the AI handles the upgrade. JPG, PNG, and WebP up to 7MB.
Most upgrades: 15-20 seconds. Very low quality originals: may need 2-3 refinements. -
Describe your desired professional look
Type 'enhance to professional product photography quality with clean white background and even lighting.' Be specific about what makes your photo look amateur - background, lighting, sharpness - and tell the AI to fix it.
The all-in-one prompt: 'professional white background, even bright lighting, sharp product details, e-commerce quality' covers most amateur photo problems. -
Compare before and after
Use the before/after slider to see the transformation. Check that the product looks professional, the background is clean, and the lighting is even. Your product should look trustworthy.
Look at your competitors' product photos. Your edited photos should match or exceed their quality level. -
Apply to your entire store
Save your successful prompt and apply it to every product. Consistent professional quality across your store is what turns browsers into buyers.
Process all your products in one session. Consistent results come from consistent prompts.

Common Amateur Photo Fix Issues
Photo still looks amateur after enhancement
Why: The original may have multiple issues (background + lighting + color + focus) and the prompt only addressed one.
Use the complete overhaul prompt: 'pure white background, bright even studio lighting, correct color balance, sharpen details, professional e-commerce photography'
Address ALL issues in one prompt rather than trying to fix them one at a time.
Enhanced photo looks over-processed or fake
Why: Too much enhancement can make products look artificial or plastic.
Add 'natural realistic enhancement, professional but authentic, no over-processing' to tone down the enhancement
Professional doesn't mean over-processed. Add 'natural' and 'authentic' to keep products looking real.
Product details lost during enhancement
Why: Aggressive enhancement can smooth over important product details and textures.
Add 'preserve all product texture and detail, enhance without smoothing, keep grain and surface quality'
If the product looks too smooth after editing, 'preserve texture' brings back the natural detail.
Colors look different from the actual product
Why: Enhancement can shift colors, especially when correcting extreme color casts.
Add 'maintain exact original product colors, correct background and lighting only, do not shift product hue or saturation'
Compare to your physical product. If colors are off, specify 'do not change product colors' explicitly.
Some products need different treatment than others
Why: Different product types (matte vs. shiny, light vs. dark) respond differently to the same enhancement.
Create 2-3 prompt variants for different product types rather than using one prompt for everything
One prompt handles 80% of products. Create variants for edge cases (very dark, very shiny, transparent).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can AI really fix my amateur product photos?
Yes. The biggest differences between amateur and professional product photos are background, lighting, and color accuracy. EditThisPic's AI fixes all three in one prompt. The results are indistinguishable from professional photography for standard product shots.
What makes a product photo look amateur?
Four things: 1) Cluttered or messy backgrounds. 2) Harsh, uneven, or yellowish lighting. 3) Soft or blurry product details. 4) Inconsistency across your catalog. EditThisPic fixes all four. One prompt handles background, lighting, and sharpness. Same prompt on every product creates consistency.
Do I need a better camera?
No. Modern smartphones take photos with more than enough resolution for Shopify listings. The quality gap between amateur and professional photos is about lighting, background, and post-processing - not camera quality. EditThisPic handles the post-processing.
How many photos can I fix?
As many as you need. The free tier lets you try it out. For large catalogs, credits start at 20 cents per photo - far less than professional photography at $20-50 per photo.
Will customers be able to tell the photos were AI-edited?
No. The AI creates the same clean white backgrounds, even lighting, and sharp details that professional photographers produce. Customers cannot distinguish between AI-enhanced and professionally shot product photos.
What's the fastest way to upgrade my entire store?
Save one prompt that works: 'pure white background, even bright lighting, sharp details, professional e-commerce quality.' Paste it for every product. Process your catalog in one sitting. Most stores can be fully upgraded in 1-3 hours.
Can I shopify photos on my phone?
Yes. EditThisPic works in any mobile browser — iPhone, Android, tablet. No app download needed.
What photo formats does the AI fix amateur-looking shopify product photos support?
JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC. Upload any common photo format and EditThisPic handles the rest.
