Create Your First PhotoFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about creating clothing & apparel photos for Amazon
Can I use a mannequin for my main Amazon clothing image?
No, Amazon requires the main image to have a pure white background with the clothing alone—no mannequins, models, or props. Mannequin shots are only allowed in supplemental images (positions 2-7). The clothing must appear as if floating on white.
How do I accurately photograph black clothing without losing detail?
Increase exposure by 1-1.5 stops compared to normal settings, use a black card beside the garment to define edges, and shoot in RAW format to recover shadow details in post-processing. Include a supplemental image showing fabric texture under brighter lighting.
What's the best way to show clothing size without measurements in images?
Include a 'size context' supplemental image showing the garment next to a common object (like a standard laptop or water bottle) or being worn by a model with height/weight disclosed. Amazon also allows mannequin shots with dimensions listed in the image caption.
Why does my white clothing keep getting rejected for background issues?
White garments require perfect separation from the white background. Use edge lighting from behind the garment to create a slight halo effect, ensuring the clothing edges are visible. Amazon's automated system often rejects white-on-white images where edges blend into the background.
