Can I use AI to combine two different product photos into one group shot?

Quick Answer (TL;DR)

Yes. AI "Product Placement" or "Canvas" features allow you to upload multiple standalone images and merge them into a single coherent scene. Nightjar excels here by handling the perspective matching and shadow generation automatically, ensuring both items look like they were photographed on the same table at the same time.

The Challenge of Group Shots

Merging photos in Photoshop is tedious because:

• Perspective Mismatch: Product A was shot at 45°, Product B at 30°.
• Lighting Clash: Product A has light from the left, Product B from the right.

The Solution

Using an AI compositor like Nightjar:

1. Upload both product images to the canvas.
2. Arrange them relative to each other (e.g., a bottle next to a box).
3. The AI analyzes the geometry and generates a background that fits both.

Crucially, it unifies the light source. It generates shadows for both objects that fall in the same direction.

This is widely used for creating "Bundle Offers" or "Gift Sets" without needing to physically ship all products to a studio for a new shoot.
