By 2023, nearly 22% of global retail sales were expected to come from ecommerce. At the same time, studies show that over 50% of online shoppers judge a product’s quality solely by its images. Together, these facts clearly prove one thing: high-quality product photography and professional image editing are no longer optional for ecommerce brands.
While photo retouching requires advanced tools, experience, and creative expertise, understanding the process behind sales-worthy ecommerce images helps businesses recognise quality and make better decisions. At MubyTech, every image follows a proven, structured workflow designed to convert browsers into buyers.
Strategic Planning Comes First
Before any editing begins, MubyTech focuses on planning the workflow. Based on the images provided, both technical and creative requirements are evaluated. Additionally, the latest ecommerce photography trends are considered, and the most suitable tools are selected. This step ensures efficiency, consistency, and predictable results.
Image Clipping for Clean Backgrounds
Background removal is now a minimum standard for ecommerce product images. To achieve precise cutouts, MubyTech uses advanced tools such as the pen tool, magic wand, marquee tool, and multiple masking techniques. These in-house clipping path methods ensure sharp edges and perfectly isolated products that look professional on any platform.
Accurate Colour Correction That Sells
Although many image editing providers claim to offer colour correction, achieving accuracy is far from simple. At MubyTech, colour correction eliminates the need to photograph every colour variant of a product. Once the colour is adjusted, editors fine-tune tone, contrast, vibrancy, saturation, and exposure to ensure the product looks realistic and appealing.
In ecommerce, your images don’t just show products — they sell them.
Removing Imperfections for a Polished Look
Photography environments are rarely dust-free. As a result, removing imperfections is essential. MubyTech uses advanced tools such as clone stamping, healing brushes, patch tools, and dust-removal filters. Each image is cleaned based on its unique requirements, ensuring a flawless final result.
Cropping to Eliminate Distractions
Distraction cropping is one of the fastest ways to draw attention to the product. By removing unnecessary foreground or background elements, the subject remains the clear focal point. Although the process is quick, it requires an experienced and aesthetic eye to maintain balance and quality
Ghost Mannequin for Apparel Images
In apparel photography, mannequins help show fit and structure. However, mannequins can also distract buyers. To solve this, MubyTech applies the ghost mannequin effect, combining multiple images to remove the mannequin while retaining the garment’s natural shape. This technique provides a clean, professional look that improves buyer confidence.
3D Image Stitching for a Realistic View
One limitation of ecommerce is presenting 3D products in a 2D space. MubyTech overcomes this using 360-degree product photography. Each image is edited consistently so that stitching software can create a seamless 3D effect. As a result, customers experience a realistic, interactive product view.
Batch Editing for Speed and Consistency
Consistency across product images builds trust. However, matching colour temperature, exposure, and contrast across hundreds of photos is difficult manually. MubyTech uses intelligent batch processing, allowing them to edit 5,000+ images overnight while maintaining uniform quality.
Image Optimisation for Faster Websites
Finally, all images are optimised for web performance. While maintaining high quality, MubyTech compresses images to reduce file size based on website requirements. This ensures faster page load times without sacrificing visual appeal.
