AI makes the pictures. A person signs them.

Yes. AI makes the pictures, and we say so. Every file carries a tag that marks it as AI-made, which Google Shopping requires. A person signs every photo before you see it.

No. You send phone photos and pick your looks from a menu. We write every prompt, run every take and throw out the bad ones at our cost. One price per shoot, and nothing runs out halfway.

Yes. Every scene is built from your photos, and every take is checked against them. Readable words, logos and marks must match exactly. Fine print the engines can't draw exactly, like ingredients or lot codes, is kept too small or soft to read. Never readable and wrong.

3 to 6 photos from your phone. The front, the back and one side, with the product standing on a table and the phone level with the label. Add the top and the label up close if you can, and its height and width in inches, or one photo next to a ruler or a bank-card-sized card. We check every photo before we start.

A Product Shoot if your product sells on its own: the studio, places from our sets, and four scenes we write for it. A Cast Shoot if you want people in the pictures: a model you pick from our cast holds it or wears it in about two thirds of your photos. Clothing works with either.

A studio backdrop and places from our sets, like a corner cafe in Lisbon or a porch in Portland. On a Product Shoot we also write four scenes for your product. On a Cast Shoot you pick the model and the look. Clothing gets flat lays and invisible-mannequin shots, and on a Cast Shoot it's worn.

If a photo gets your product wrong, we replace it free within 14 days. If you want a different direction, that's a re-shoot, $99 with 3 photos to keep. And if a shoot doesn't give you 5 photos you're happy to keep, you get back what you paid for it.

Yes, for your business, for good. Every photo you keep is licensed to you for any lawful business use, and we never sell or license your photos to anyone else. Two limits come with our models: they can't stand in for customers or appear in reviews, and some places, like New York, require an AI disclosure on ads that use them. Copyright law for AI images is still being settled, and our terms explain what that means.

Yes, with one exception each. Amazon's main product image and Etsy's first listing photo must be real photographs. Etsy also asks sellers to disclose AI-made images. Use Hemmed Ocean photos everywhere else on the listing, your site, ads and social.

No. Your photos go only to the AI services that make and check your images. Our terms name each one, and none of them trains on your photos.

Only the people making your gallery. Unreleased products are confidential, and we never show them anywhere.

By email, whenever you like. There are no calls to book. A person answers within one business day, and your account page shows where your shoot is.

Yes, both online. A pause lasts 1, 2 or 3 months and starts when the month you've paid for ends, so nothing is lost. We email you a week before it picks back up. If you cancel, every photo you've kept stays yours.

Every photo you've kept stays yours to download, for as long as Hemmed Ocean runs. The product photos we hold for your shoots stay on file while you're a member, and we delete them 90 days after you leave, or sooner if you ask.

You'd get at least 90 days' notice by email to download everything you've kept. Nothing is locked inside our site.

Proofs stay small and marked until you keep them. The ones you keep arrive full size and clean.

$35 each from a Product Shoot gallery, or keep every remaining proof for $99. On a Cast Shoot, $49 each or $149 for the whole gallery.

A different scene or style than the one you ordered is a re-shoot: $99 with 3 photos to keep. Anything that gets your product wrong is a fix, free within 14 days of delivery.

Each new product is checked and set up once, then it stays on file. Studio sets up 1 new product a month, and each one after that is $29. Take a product off file anytime to free its place.

A Product Shoot gives you flat lays and invisible-mannequin shots, the product page standard, for $149. A Cast Shoot puts tops and hoodies on our models, for $299. A garment printed with a photograph or a detailed drawing is shot flat and on the mannequin, since no engine yet holds that kind of print on a body. A gallery holds up to 2 garments.

Right now the price you see is the price you pay. If that ever changes for your state, checkout shows the tax before you pay.
