Add reflections to product photos in bulk

Reflections give products visual weight and presence, helping them feel anchored instead of floating against a background. This adds realism and a polished studio finish, which is especially useful for cosmetics, tech accessories, jewelry, packaging and premium consumer goods. Photoroom applies reflections in bulk so every SKU shares the same lighting footprint and presentation style.

Shadows show where a product sits. Reflections show what a product is sitting on. The two define different aspects of realism: shadows indicate depth, reflections indicate surface quality. Many brands use reflections to create a glossy, elevated look associated with high-end photography. Photoroom lets you apply shadows and reflections separately or together, and scale the look across entire catalogs.

Any visual cue that increases realism and polish can improve trust and perceived value. Reflections help products feel tangible, well-lit and professionally photographed, which can make price points feel more justified. While results vary by category, ecommerce teams often use reflections on hero products, premium lines and comparison pages. With Photoroom you can A/B test both styles quickly using batch outputs.

Not every item benefits from a high-contrast mirrored surface. Soft goods, textured materials or matte finishes may look better with a lighter reflection or none at all. Photoroom lets you set intensity, blur and reflection height for your batch so each category can be styled appropriately. You can also save reflection presets for jewelry, cosmetics, electronics or packaging variations.

Reflections change the visual structure but do not significantly impact file size when exported properly. Photoroom prepares reflected images with balanced compression settings so product photos remain lightweight for mobile and fast enough for PDP grids, marketplace listings and feed-based storefronts.

It depends on the workflow. Studio setups deliver perfect lighting but require time, logistics and product handling. Reflections in Photoroom don’t replicate a full multi-light setup, but they offer a clean, glossy alternative that can be scaled across hundreds of SKUs instantly. Many brands use this instead of reshoots for new variants, seasonal packaging or back-catalog optimization.

Yes. Photoroom is built for batch workflows. You upload your product set, choose reflection style and export a matched visual finish across your entire catalog. This reduces editing cycles and keeps your brand output consistent across PDPs, feed images and marketplace listings — even at high SKU volumes.
