Create AI product photos, lifestyle scenes and campaign images in WordPress. Generate in bulk and update your WooCommerce product images.

== Description ==

= 📸 Give your WooCommerce products a fresh new look =

**Your products. A fresh look. No new real photoshoot.**

Turn the photos already in your WooCommerce store into **studio shots, lifestyle scenes and on-model images** for product pages, ads and social posts.

Fotogenic AI is an **AI product photography plugin for WooCommerce stores and ecommerce businesses**. Give a best-selling product a new look, prepare visuals for a launch, or refresh an entire collection, right inside WordPress.

**Using SureCart, another ecommerce plugin or a regular WordPress site?** Create new images from your WordPress Media Library, Posts and Pages, then use the saved results on your site. Direct product selection and automatic product updates are WooCommerce features.

* **Make your products the focus:** create new looks for your WooCommerce product pages and galleries.
* **Prepare your next promotion:** create campaign images for new arrivals, seasonal offers and social posts.
* **Refresh more of your catalog:** select products and variations and generate in bulk.
* **Put new images to work:** update featured images and galleries directly, with review-first or automatic options.

= 🛍️ Update WooCommerce product images and galleries =

**From a fresh product look to your WooCommerce product page.** Create, review and apply images in the same workflow, without downloading and uploading them again.

Choose how you want to work:

1. **Review images first:** save the results, inspect them and apply the images you want.
2. **Update my store automatically:** choose your image updates during setup and let eligible completed results use those settings.

For supported product and variation results, you can:

* **Replace the featured image** with a new product photo.
* **Add images to the gallery** at the beginning or end.
* **Replace the current gallery** with your new images.
* **Keep results in the Media Library** by choosing Review images first.

**Your original files stay in the Media Library.** Incomplete results may require review. AI creates new images, so check product shape, colors, logos and text before publishing.

= 📦 Bulk AI product image generation for WooCommerce =

**A new collection. A seasonal refresh. A catalog that needs a new look.** Select the products you want to work on and create images together, without setting up a separate run for every item.

* **Find the right products:** search by name, SKU or ID, and filter by category or stock status.
* **Select products and variations:** apply a shared setup to the items you choose.
* **Check the estimate first:** see the estimated credit cost before starting.
* **Follow your progress:** larger product selections use background processing.
* **Return through History:** reopen saved runs and review their results.

= AI campaign images for launches, ads and social media =

**One product. More ways to promote it.** Use Campaign Set to create a group of images with a shared creative direction for your store's next launch or promotion.

* **2 to 6 related images:** build a set for new arrivals, a seasonal offer or a social campaign.
* **Creative options:** choose the available style, model and output settings.
* **Single or multiple selections:** create campaign sets from WooCommerce products or Media Library images.

= 🎨 AI product backgrounds and lifestyle photography =

A plain product photo is just the starting point. Take a jacket outdoors, give a skincare bottle a colorful studio backdrop, or place home decor in a lifestyle setting.

* **New backgrounds and styles:** explore clean catalog looks, colorful settings and lifestyle scenes.
* **Your existing photos:** use the featured image, gallery photos or both as references.
* **Your creative direction:** choose available environment and style settings, then add your own instructions.

= AI models for product and fashion photography =

Show clothing on a model, explore a different look, or keep the focus on the product alone.

* **Fotogenic AI models:** choose from the available model library.
* **Your own references:** select an available account reference or upload a model photo.
* **Reusable saved models:** pick references saved in the plugin without finding them again in the Media Library.
* **Product-only images:** create a scene without including a model.

= ✨ Product photography templates and custom controls =

**Start with a look you like. Make it work for your products.**

* **Ready-made templates:** browse by product category, preview the example and apply its creative and output settings.
* **Custom lighting and camera settings:** guide the lighting, angle, framing and composition in custom image setup.
* **Image quality and aspect ratio:** choose the available output options for your workflow.
* **Reference images and instructions:** give the AI more direction about the result you want.
* **Saved setups:** reuse a creative direction across your next collection or product selection.
* **Fotogenic Visual Intelligence:** get suggested settings from your source image, then review and adjust them.

Template options are defined by each template. Switch to custom settings when you want more control.

= AI image upscaling for existing product photos =

Already have a product photo you like? Use **Increase Resolution** to create a higher-resolution version for your store.

* **Upscale product or Media Library images** individually or in multiple selections.
* **Save the enhanced image as a new file** in your WordPress Media Library.
* **Keep your original photo** available for future use.

= Get your new product look in 4 steps =

1. **Choose your products:** select WooCommerce products or variations from your catalog.
2. **Choose your look:** start with a template or set your own creative direction.
3. **Check and generate:** review the setup and estimated credit cost.
4. **Use your new images:** review and apply the results, or use the automatic updates you selected.

= More image tools for your WordPress content =

**Create beyond your product catalog, too.** Use images for your blog, landing pages and other WordPress content. WooCommerce is optional for these workflows:

* **Generate Images** with Media Library, Post and Page images.
* **Campaign Set and Increase Resolution** with Media Library selections.

The plugin works in your WordPress dashboard and adds **no frontend blocks, shortcodes, widgets or tracking scripts** to your storefront.

= Give your first WooCommerce product a new look =

**Start with a product you already sell. See what a new look can do for it.** Install Fotogenic AI, connect your account and select a product photo from your store.

* **Free to install:** image creation uses the Fotogenic AI service and account credits.
* **Free credits for eligible new accounts:** try the service with no credit card.
* **Costs visible before you start:** check your balance and the estimated generation cost in Studio.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= <strong>Can I create new product photos from images already in my store?</strong> =

Yes. Choose your WooCommerce products and use their featured images, gallery images or both as references. You can also select images from the WordPress Media Library.

= <strong>Can I change a product photo's background or show it on a model?</strong> =

Yes. Generate new images using available style, environment and model options, or start with a template. You can add your own references and instructions. This creates a new image rather than editing only the background, so check that the result accurately represents your product.

= <strong>Can I generate product images in bulk?</strong> =

Yes. Generate Images supports one or multiple Products, Media Library items, Posts or Pages. Campaign Set and Increase Resolution support one or multiple Products or Media Library items. Larger product selections are processed as a managed queue.

= <strong>What is the difference between Generate Images, Campaign Set and Increase Resolution?</strong> =

* **Generate Images:** create a new look for your product.
* **Campaign Set:** create 2 to 6 related images with a shared creative direction.
* **Increase Resolution:** create a higher-resolution version of an existing image.

= <strong>Can I save and reuse my product photography settings?</strong> =

Yes. Save your creative setup and use it again for another selection. You can also reuse model references saved in the plugin.

= <strong>Will my WooCommerce product images change automatically?</strong> =

**Only if you choose automatic updates during setup.** Select Review images first to save results without changing your products, then apply the images you want after reviewing them.

= <strong>Can I replace a product image or add images to its gallery?</strong> =

Yes. For eligible product results, replace the featured image, add images at the beginning or end of the gallery, or replace the gallery. You can also keep results in the Media Library without updating the product.

= <strong>Are my original photos deleted or overwritten?</strong> =

**No. Your original files are preserved.** Generated and enhanced images are saved as new Media Library attachments. Changing which image appears on a product does not delete its original file.

= <strong>Do I need WooCommerce?</strong> =

WooCommerce 9.4 or newer is required to work with WooCommerce products and update their images. Without WooCommerce, Generate Images supports Media Library, Post and Page images. Campaign Set and Increase Resolution also work with Media Library images.

= <strong>Is Fotogenic AI free, and do I need an account?</strong> =

The plugin is free to install. A connected Fotogenic AI account is required to create images. Eligible new accounts can try the service with free credits and no credit card. Your account shows the current allowance; continued use depends on available credits or service access. See the current [plans and pricing](https://fotogenic.ai/pricing/).

= <strong>Can I see the cost before generating images?</strong> =

Yes. Studio shows an estimated credit cost before you start. Check the estimate for your selected workflow, image count and quality.

= <strong>Does this plugin add anything to my storefront?</strong> =

No. Fotogenic AI runs in wp-admin and does not add frontend blocks, shortcodes, widgets or tracking scripts.
