Shadow services
A cut-out product on pure white can look like it is floating. Shadow services add a drop, natural or reflection shadow so the product looks grounded and photographed, not pasted.
From $0.30 per image
Choose this when
- White-background catalogues that need depth
- Products that look flat once the backdrop is removed
- Consistent shadow style across a whole product range
Choose something else when
- Marketplaces that require pure white with no shadow: ask for the cut-out only
What you get
- Drop, natural, reflection or mirror shadow, your choice
- Shadow on its own layer in PSD, adjustable later
- Matching direction and softness across the batch

Questions
About shadow services
Do I need background removal as well?
Usually yes: the shadow is added after the cut-out. Tell us in the order notes and we price both together.
