Generate in Shopify, publish to the product

Shopify’s 2048 px recommendation is about how images display, not a hard minimum. What makes a storefront look uneven more often is a mix of shapes and lighting: a square packshot next to a portrait lifestyle photo next to a supplier image on gray.

The Kive app for Shopify imports your products, generates new images in the studio you pick and adds the results to the product’s images. One studio keeps the backdrop and light the same from product to product.

How it works

  1. 1Install Kive from the Shopify App Store and connect a workspace.
  2. 2Open a product in Shopify admin and choose Create with Kive, or import your products into Kive first.
  3. 3Pick a studio and a 1:1 aspect ratio, check the result against the product, then add it to the product’s images.

Knitwear, worn

Made from a Kive idea. The cardigan’s stripes, buttons and chunky knit carry over from a flat product photo, now worn by a model on a blue studio set.

Before / after

Cream cardigan with navy stripes laid flat on gray, and the same cardigan worn by a seated model in front of a blue backdrop and a blue ball - Before

A still life for the next product

Made from a Kive idea. The leather grain, the gold hardware and the logo plate come from the product photo; the shell, the stone and the anthurium come from the idea.

Before / after

Tan leather top-handle bag on a cream backdrop, and the same bag balanced on a pink shell and a pale stone beside a red anthurium - Before
