Chicago Product Photography Studio
Ecommerce Product Photography:
Catalog-Ready. Platform-Compliant.
Ecommerce photography is about efficiency, consistency, and meeting the exact specifications required by Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, and major retailers. Clean backgrounds, accurate product representation, and imagery that performs across every channel you sell through.
Images That Meet Every Spec
Every ecommerce platform has image requirements, and the most demanding of them is Amazon. Main images need a pure white background, specific minimum resolution, and product fill percentages that maximize visibility in search results. We shoot to these specs by default.
Beyond Amazon, we deliver files sized and formatted for Shopify, major retail partner portals, Google Shopping, and your own website. One shoot, every channel covered. We'll map the deliverables before we start so there are no surprises at delivery.

More Products, One Day
Ecommerce photography is designed for volume. A well-organized shoot day can move through dozens of products efficiently when the pre-production work is done: products prepped, shot list confirmed, angles and variants mapped out in advance.
Many brands combine ecommerce catalog shots with lifestyle setups in the same day to get two distinct types of imagery from one production. We plan both tracks together in pre-production so the day runs smoothly and nothing gets rushed.
Straightforward answers to the questions we hear most often about ecommerce product photography.
01Do you shoot Amazon main images?
Yes. Amazon main image requirements include a pure white background (RGB 255, 255, 255), the product filling 85% or more of the frame, no props or text in the main image, and a minimum of 1000px on the shortest side for zoom functionality. We shoot to these requirements by default.
02How many products can be photographed in one shoot day?
It depends on product complexity, the number of angles per product, and whether any styling or setup changes are needed between shots. Simple ecommerce products with standard angles can move quickly. We'll estimate throughput based on your specific product set during pre-production so you know what to expect.
03Can ecommerce and lifestyle photography be combined in one shoot?
Yes. It's one of the most efficient ways to build a complete image library. Ecommerce catalog shots in the morning, lifestyle setups in the afternoon. You leave with two distinct types of imagery from a single shoot day. The key is planning both tracks in advance.
04What file formats and sizes do you deliver?
We deliver high-resolution JPEGs sized to platform specifications by default. If you need specific file formats, resolutions, or naming conventions for a particular retailer or internal system, let us know before the shoot and we'll build that into the delivery plan.
