Shadow Creation

Natural contact shadows, drops, and reflections so a cutout sits on the ground.

Charcoal headphones with a cast shadow

A cutout with no shadow looks like a sticker. A shadow gives the object a surface. We build contact shadows, longer cast shadows, and simple reflections when the product calls for them.

What we do

Contact shadow

A soft shadow under the product.

Cast shadow

A longer shadow when the lighting brief asks for it.

Reflection

A restrained mirror on glossy floors, not a second product.

Benefits

  • Cutouts sit in the layout instead of floating.
  • A catalog can share one shadow direction.
  • The shadow is separate, so it can be strengthened later.

Use cases

  • White-background catalogs
  • Landing pages
  • Packshots
  • Ads

Workflow

  1. 01

    Send the images and say where they will be used.

  2. 02

    We confirm scope, format, and timing in the quote.

  3. 03

    Editors complete the file and check it at full size.

  4. 04

    You review. Changes that were part of the quote are included.

Quality

Every file is reviewed at 100% before it is sent. A public page is not a promise of a turnaround. The quote is.

FAQ

JPG, PNG, TIFF, and PSD are typical. Say if the destination needs a specific format back.

No. Scope is confirmed first.

For a plain background or a simple crop, often yes. For a catalog, hair, jewelry, or a set that must match, use the service.
