Lifestyle product photography is one of the most expensive items in any e-commerce or brand marketing budget. Getting a product into a credible scene — a kitchen counter, a living room shelf, an outdoor table — requires a studio, a stylist, and a full day of shooting for each variation.

Scene Compositor places any product photo into any background scene with realistic lighting, shadow, and perspective matching. A skincare bottle can appear on a marble bathroom shelf in soft morning light. A coffee machine can sit on a Scandinavian kitchen counter. A pair of trainers can be placed on an outdoor wooden deck. The compositing is photorealistic — not a cutout on a background.

E-commerce brands use this to produce lifestyle imagery at a fraction of the studio cost, marketing teams use it to create seasonal campaign variants without reshooting, and product designers use it to show context renders before the physical product exists.

How to place a product into a lifestyle scene with Claude

Once connected (see setup above), use the Scene Compositor tool:

  2. Ask Claude to run `place_object` via the scene-compositor tool.
  3. Review the composite and ask Claude whether the lighting and shadow are convincing.
  4. Request a second scene for comparison — a different setting or a different time of day.
  5. Save the winning composite for your listing or campaign.

Example prompt for Claude

Try this with Claude using the Scene Compositor tool
Use scene-compositor to place this vitamin serum bottle into a minimal bathroom scene — marble shelf, soft natural light from the left, a eucalyptus sprig nearby. Tell me whether the shadow looks natural and suggest one scene variation that would perform better for a premium skincare audience.

Tips for Claude

  • Describe the light direction in the scene for the most realistic shadow placement.
  • Ask Claude to check that the product's scale looks correct relative to the scene elements.
  • Try the same product in two very different scenes — indoor and outdoor, minimal and styled — to find which audience it resonates with.
