Put Your Photo on a Pastel Background
Upload a photo, cut out the subject, and set it on a soft pastel. Try peach, lilac, mint or baby blue, then download.
Using a pastel background
Pastels are low saturation, high softness
A pastel is any color mixed with white: peach, lilac, mint, baby blue, butter. They feel gentle, modern and friendly, and they photograph well because they do not overpower the product.
Pick one pastel and stay with it
Peach (around #ffd8c2), lilac (around #e9d5ff), mint (around #c8efdc) and baby blue (around #bfdbfe) are all popular. A shop that uses one pastel across every photo looks branded and cohesive.
Darker products work best
Pastel on pastel can look washed out. Dark green, navy, black and deep red products have the strongest contrast, and a soft shadow helps light products.
