Ghost Mannequin
The ghost mannequin technique involves shooting a product on a mannequin, which is then erased during post-production to leave an illusion of a filled, "worn" garment. It highlights the fit and architecture of the item without the distraction of a model.
We offer Ghost Mannequin photoshoots under our Catalog Product Photography services.
Also called the invisible mannequin technique, it emphasizes a garment's interior shape and structure; related processes include post-production and image retouching.
Pro Tip
Pro Tip: Plan your shots for easy compositing and rely on careful post-production retouching to seamlessly remove the mannequin while preserving the garment's shape.
Use Cases
Used in product and apparel photography when you want to display fit and construction clearly without a live model.
