How to edit product photos in Shopify

It is no secret that people shop with their eyes so making sure your product images are showcased in their best light and at their highest quality is a must. Sure, it may sound simple enough to take a product photo and upload it, but will it look like you want it to look without some final touches? I don’t think so, which is why editing tools can make life look that much more polished so consumers see your brand and items for the luxury they are.

Shopify has many elements for raising brand awareness, creating the best product imagery using editing tools and the like, and could be just the platform you need to show the world your products and what they have been missing out on. Editing product photography in Shopify is not as tricky as many editors new on the scene may think.

Take the time to implement these subtle recommendations so you can create a presentation and curated collection of images you will be proud of and that people will flock to purchase.

1. Advanced options such as text overlays or color filtering features will add a professional touch to the overall look of the images and design. Be sure not to go overboard with the color editing and saturation, you still want the images to look true to what the customer will expect to receive.

2. Always use high-quality images that represent your product in its most highlighted showcase. When customers see images for what they are and that they look well thought out and put together, they feel confident in your brand and comfortable making a purchase. Always try to keep customer satisfaction in mind and how they will feel when they see your product images.

3. The bulk editing tool is a great advantage if you have multiple, even hundreds of images to edit. By simplifying the process you can gain time and maximize work efficiency, ultimately minimizing the overall workload.

4. Cropping images is necessary, and while many people don’t believe it, the last thing you want is for your product to be floating in a vast white space. Crop so the image becomes the main focus, it is, after all, the star of the show, right? It shows customers you’re confident in your product and believe in it, and it has a more sophisticated professional appeal too.

5. Consider using third-party apps and plug-ins to maximize work efficiency and increase flow.
