Midjourney Backgrounds and Models Behind Real Product Photos
Use Midjourney for scenes and people, then add your real product
One seller says he basically never pays for models anymore, only for Midjourney.

Copy-paste prompt
/imagine [scene: e.g. a woman in her 30s hiking a forest trail, holding an empty space at chest height where a water bottle will go], natural morning light, editorial photo, shallow depth of field --style raw --ar 1:1 (Then composite my real product photo into the scene in Photoshop and match the light and shadow.)
The source didn't publish its exact prompt. We wrote this starter so you can try the same workflow. Replace anything in [brackets].
What they did
Sellers in an r/FulfillmentByAmazon thread describe how they use Midjourney: one beverage brand makes colored backgrounds in Midjourney and photoshops its real can on top; another seller uses it for background people holding products like backpacks and water bottles; another uses it for child models; another uses Midjourney for people and scenery and Ecomtent for the product photos.
How it went
One seller says he basically never pays for models anymore, only for Midjourney. Several say it fails at the product itself: uploading a product photo and asking Midjourney to modify it 'totally messes everything up.'
We only report what the source says. Results are self-reported unless noted.
Worth knowing
Forum replies from February 2024 (older Midjourney versions). The consistent advice: generate the scene, then composite your real product photo, because Amazon images have to show the actual product.
