> Stillhouse photographs every toy and game in your range in one set, with the product, its colours and its box checked against your own photo. Frames that show a child are AI-generated, and the marketplace rules for toys differ by platform.

## Photographing toys

Toys are bought by adults for children, and the picture has to answer practical questions: how big is it, what does it do, what is in the box. Colour and detail matter, because a child will notice if it is not the toy on the screen.

Many toys are sold as sets, with parts, pieces and accessories. Each piece should appear in the frame, and the pieces should not multiply or vanish.

## Common photo problems

- **Parts go missing.** A set of twelve pieces becomes eleven or fourteen. The count in the picture should match the count in the box.
- **Bright colours drift.** Saturated plastics and painted wood are easy to shift. A red car should be the red you manufacture.
- **Packaging has text.** Age grade, piece count and safety marks are on the box. They are printed text and must be right.
- **Scale and play.** Customers want to see the toy in a hand or in use, not only on a table.

## What the studio does about it

- **Product checked against your photo.** Each frame is compared with the photo you upload for shape, colour and detail.
- **Packaging from your photo.** The box text is restored from your product photo.
- **Marketplace packs.** The Amazon pack puts the main image on pure white and is checked against the marketplace's rules.

## Questions

### Will the piece count be right?

The studio checks each frame against your product photo, but counting pieces is hard for any image tool. Count the pieces in every frame that shows a set before you publish it.

### Can the frame show a child playing?

A person in the frame is AI-generated, and rules on images of children differ by platform. Check the rules for where you sell before you use one.

### Are there safety marks on the box?

They are restored from your product photo like any other label. Compliance for toys is your responsibility, not the studio's.
