Using your product photos directly after shooting without clipping or retouching them often sends out signals of wanting professionalism and rigour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One crucial step is missing: the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/clipping\/\">clipping<\/a>\u00a0and\/or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/retouching\/\">retouching<\/a>\u00a0of your product photos to\u00a0make them truly attractive and show them to full advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But no need to worry, your \u201cagony\u201d stops here if you decide to entrust this task to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/clipping\/\">clipping<\/a>\u00a0and retouching professionals \u2013 the way that most e-commerce players do already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clipping and retouching&nbsp;enthusiasts like those at Simata\u00ef, who have turned their passion into their profession, are right here for you. The fact is, post-production is the last \u2013 unskippable \u2013 step before you can post your images online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clip your photo and correct its flaws to show it at its best<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think of a product\u2019s packaging: not only is it something that is necessary, it is also \u2013 and above all \u2013 a way to&nbsp;motivate purchases. In e-commerce, post-production covers exactly the same function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is your photo\u2019s background not uniform? We can use the Pen tool to clip your packshot. Is the product\u2019s colour unfaithful to reality? We can correct the colour balance. Do you wish to show your products in a range of colours? We can\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/colourisation\/\">colourise<\/a>\u00a0them. Does your image have minor flaws? We can\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/retouching\/\">retouch<\/a>\u00a0them. Are your photos in the wrong size? We can resize them. Do you wish to post your images on a marketplace like Amazon, Cdiscount, Ebay, or PriceMinister? We can\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.simatai.fr\/detourage\/\">clip<\/a>\u00a0your images according to customised parameters specifically for these platforms. Do you wish to enhance your product? We can make it look its best by creating a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/ghost\/\">ghost-mannequin effect<\/a>, a shadow, a reflection, using\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/3d-modelling\/atmosphere-creation\/\">staging<\/a>, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whatever your needs or your budget, Simata\u00ef is the expert to accompany you in the retouching and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simatai.fr\/en\/retouch-photo\/clipping\/\">clipping<\/a>\u00a0of your images in order to push up your\u00a0conversion rate. All our clipping and correction services are carried out manually on Photoshop by experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Getting your images clipped and retouched by professional experts is a way to ensure that your product photos become genuine&nbsp;selling points that will sell more and better. But above all, it\u2019s also the chance for you to&nbsp;delegate tasks&nbsp;that are tedious and time-consuming to professionals so that you can focus on your core activity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t skip any steps: make sure your product photos are really OUTSTANDING before posting them on your online shop.
