Product Manager – Garments Crew

Our Composed Photography technology saves the retailer time and money on online model photography without compromising on image quality and impact. Models only need to be shot once, whilst the retailer’s collection is shot separately on our custom-made mannequins. Our technology then dresses the model in the clothing as if she was photographed wearing it.
