Hi all. We have seen other brands on social media channels obtain a seemingly never ending supply of images of their products being worn by people - lifestyle mages. Are there any key suppliers where we can go register and pay say a monthly fee then send our products for this kind of service?
Appreciate some of these brands will be reaching out to models directly but I’m wondering if there is a service we can use anywhere - which doesn’t cost the earth 
!
Cheers

I also would like to know about this.
Once you need promotion done, this service will never be free. There are various things you can do however to offset costs. Such as reaching out to persons yourself, asking friends and family to be apart of content shoots for minimal compensation and also there are apps available that can be used to stage content shoots. For example, we have an app that is used to help small businesses level up their product photography. We have a variety of templates and features, such as models and you upload your products and the app does the rest.
Hi @dawss and @dank_shades ,
The Pixc: Lifestyle Photos app will be a helpful tool for this. It can transform your product photos into vibrant lifestyle shots. You can give your products eye-catching backgrounds so your customers can see how your products are in real-life settings. It can boost engagement and potentially lead to more sales.
Feel free to give it a try and see the difference it makes. You can get 5 bonus images to test it out on your store.
Give us a heads-up at hello@pixc.com if you need any assistance.
Best,
There’s no perfect “subscription” lifestyle shoot service yet. Most brands mix DIY micro-shoots with friends or creators. Along with AI tools that turn clean product photos into lifestyle scenes keeping costs low while maintaining a steady flow of usable content. Example Pikes AI is especially useful for product visuals because it refines backgrounds, lighting, and shadows while keeping the product realistic and on-brand. It works well for bulk image updates, helping catalogs look clean, consistent, and professional without repeated manual edits. And nano banana for mood boards and visual direction.
A mix of simple product shoots and lifestyle backgrounds seems like the sweet spot for fresh, consistent visuals without the time and cost of constantly arranging full photoshoots.
Hey @dawss
hope you’re doing well!
Yes—UGC creator platforms are probably your best option. You can send products to creators and get lifestyle photos/videos without managing models individually, and many offer flexible or subscription style options
Many brands combine UGC creators for authentic lifestyle photos with AI-assisted background and lighting edits. This keeps visuals consistent, scales content production, and remains cost-effective for growing ecommerce stores.
