Correction, 2026-10-02: this page called Nano Banana Pro the model we recommend when label text must be spelled right and a "strong pick" for marketplace listings, and described its typical failures as if we had measured them. We have not, so those lines are now things to check in every output. The steps told you to select Pro without saying that the Nano Banana node opens on Nano Banana 2 (11 credits at 1K), and recommended 1:1 for marketplaces and 4:5 for social without a source: the steps now list the ratios the node offers (it opens on 9:16) and quote Amazon's and Shopify's own image guidance, checked today. We also added the generation time, the PNG output, and the fact that the 8frame MCP connector's Nano Banana tool runs Nano Banana Classic, not Pro.
Correction, 2026-09-30: the first version of this page presented these prompts as tested, with generation times and observations we cannot reproduce, compared speed with Seedream and detail with "Flux Dev" (not a model on 8frame), gave pixel resolution settings the node doesn't have, and described batch and marketplace-certification features we can't confirm. The prompts and the formula stay; the rest is gone.
If you're looking for nano banana pro prompts for product photography, the short answer is: name the surface, the light source and the label orientation before you describe mood. Be explicit about geometry and light, and give it your real product photo as a reference when the item must match. These 8 prompts cover everything from white-seamless hero shots to holiday scenes. On 8frame, Nano Banana Pro costs 21 credits per image at 1K or 2K (42 at 4K) and accepts up to 10 reference images. The Nano Banana node opens on Nano Banana 2, so switch it to Pro.
TL;DR
- Use these prompts for PDP hero stills and marketplace listings, where a clean background and true colour matter more than editorial mood
- The prompt formula is: Product + Surface + Lighting Source + Composition + Style. Name each part; leave the aspect ratio and resolution to the node
- Check every output for label text, label distortion on curved surfaces, colour drift on brand palettes, and blown highlights on high-gloss finishes
- On 8frame: Nano Banana Pro is 21 credits per image at 1K or 2K, 42 at 4K, with a median of 37 seconds per image; the node opens on Nano Banana 2 (11 at 1K), so switch to Pro; up to 10 reference images; outputs are PNG
When to use Nano Banana Pro for product photography
Use Nano Banana Pro for ecommerce stills where the product has to read clearly: PDP hero stills on a white or neutral background, marketplace listing images where the lighting should stay consistent across your catalog, and catalog shots that have to sit next to your existing photography. If there is text on the label, check it letter by letter in every output: we have not measured how often Pro, or any other model, spells it right.
It isn't the cheapest option. On 8frame, FLUX.2 [pro] is 5 credits and Seedream 5 Lite 6, against 21 for Nano Banana Pro, and Nano Banana 2 is 11 at 1K. For a lifestyle scene with heavy narrative context or a very specific campaign mood, compare Nano Banana, Seedream and Flux on your own prompt before you commit.
The prompt formula
The prompts below all follow one structure:
Product + Surface + Lighting Source + Composition + Style
Breaking it down:
- Product: Name it specifically. "Brown glass apothecary bottle with matte black pump, 200ml" beats "skincare bottle." Include material, finish, and size if you have it.
- Surface: What the product is sitting on or near. "White seamless paper," "pale grey concrete tile," "weathered wood surface." Name it every time, and keep it identical across a set.
- Lighting Source: "Single diffused softbox from camera left," "window light from right, soft shadows," "overhead ring light, minimal shadows." Name the source and its direction instead of an adjective like "bright" or "moody," then check that the shadows in the output match it.
- Composition: "Centered, slight three-quarter angle, label facing forward" or "top-down, product centered in frame." Say where the product sits and which side faces camera.
- Style: "Commercial product photography," "clean ecommerce," "editorial minimalist." One style descriptor, not three.
8 prompts for product photography
1. Hero shot (white seamless)
Brown glass serum bottle with gold dropper cap, centered on white seamless background, single softbox from camera left at 45 degrees, slight three-quarter angle, label facing camera, commercial product photography.
What to check: The cap highlight (gold can blow out), whether the white background stays neutral rather than warm, and the label structure. Set 4:5 on the node rather than in the prompt.
2. Lifestyle (in-context)
Matte white ceramic coffee mug on a light oak kitchen counter, morning light from a window on the right side of frame, scattered coffee beans nearby, steam rising from mug, shallow depth of field, lifestyle product photography.
What to check: Steam direction, the background beans staying soft, and the white ceramic staying free of a yellow or grey cast.
3. Macro detail (texture)
Close-up of a dark navy canvas sneaker upper, extreme macro, fabric weave visible, white rubber sole edge in lower frame, soft overhead studio lighting, no background, white seamless, product detail photography.
What to check: Fabric weave and stitching at macro scale. If fine detail smears, simplify the frame before adding more description.
4. Exploded view
Modular skincare set, three glass bottles and one pump arranged in an exploded flat-lay pattern, equal spacing, white background, direct overhead lighting, symmetrical composition, clean ecommerce product photography.
What to check: That all objects share one shadow direction, spacing stays even, and relative sizes make sense.
5. Side-by-side (comparison)
Two matte black water bottles side by side, one 500ml and one 750ml, white seamless background, even front-facing studio lighting, both labels forward, slight height difference visible, commercial product photography.
What to check: That the size difference between the two bottles reads, and that both labels and finishes match.
6. Top-down (flat lay)
Olive oil bottle, sprig of rosemary, and a small ceramic bowl with olive oil, arranged in a flat-lay composition on a linen-textured white surface, directly overhead camera angle, soft diffused window light, food and lifestyle photography.
What to check: Surface texture scale, the geometry of the bottle from overhead, and fine botanical detail such as the rosemary leaves: look at them at full size.
7. Seasonal (holiday context)
Dark green gift box with gold ribbon, placed on a frosted white surface with soft bokeh holiday lights in the background, warm amber fill light from below, festive product photography, slight low-angle composition.
What to check: That the bokeh stays behind the subject, and the gold ribbon keeps its highlight without blowing out.
8. Monochrome studio
Silver stainless steel insulated tumbler on a pale grey concrete surface, grey seamless background, high-key studio lighting, minimal shadows, monochromatic color scheme, product photography, commercial.
What to check: That three materials (brushed steel, concrete, background) stay distinguishable with no colour to help.
Problems to check for
Label text and distortion on curved surfaces. A label that wraps around a cylindrical bottle can come out compressed or stretched, and the words on it can change. Check the label in every output. One option is to add "flat label, front-facing only" to your prompt and accept that you won't get a full wrap. For full-wrap label shots, or whenever the text must be exact, composite the real label in the edit.
Hands in held-product shots. A prompt that asks for a hand holding or presenting the product can come back with the usual hand problems: wrong finger count, unnatural grip, melted knuckles. Check the fingers before anything else. Either leave hands out or use a real held-product photo as a reference image rather than prompting for hands from scratch.
Glossy surface reflections. High-gloss surfaces, especially clear plastic or patent leather, can show streaky reflections. Prompt "diffused studio light, soft box, no harsh specular" explicitly. If you're getting blown reflections, change the lighting descriptor first.
Colour drift on brand palettes. Don't count on a Pantone name or a hex code in the prompt to land exactly: we have not measured how close it gets. Compare the output with your swatch, and correct brand colour in the grade.
Step-by-step on 8frame
- Open the 8frame canvas and add a Nano Banana node (Image Generation). It opens on Nano Banana 2 (11 credits at 1K), so switch the model to Pro (21 credits).
- Set the aspect ratio on the node. It offers 1:1, 21:9, 4:3, 3:2, 2:3, 5:4, 4:5, 3:4, 16:9 and 9:16 and opens on 9:16, a vertical frame, so change it for a product grid. Shopify, for example, says square product images display best at 2048 x 2048 px. Then pick the resolution: 1K and 2K both cost 21 credits, 4K costs 42.
- Paste your prompt following the Product + Surface + Lighting Source + Composition + Style formula from above.
- Run the first generation. One Nano Banana Pro image takes a median of 37 seconds on 8frame. Check the label text letter by letter, the shadow direction and the colour before iterating.
- For a catalog set, keep the surface and lighting wording identical and change only the product and composition, so the set reads as one shoot.
- Check each image against your marketplace's own rules before upload. Amazon's seller guide says product shots should be taken against a white background (RGB 255, 255, 255) "in most cases", asks for the product to fill 85% or more of the frame, and lists 500 to 10,000 pixels on the longest side and JPEG, TIFF, PNG or non-animated GIF files; it points to Seller Central for the full requirements. A "white seamless" prompt does not guarantee pure 255 white, so check the pixel values, or cut the product out with background removal (12 credits) and place it on pure white. Nano Banana Pro outputs are PNG, which both Amazon and Shopify accept.
FAQ
What resolution should I use for product photography with Nano Banana Pro?
Check your marketplace's current image requirements first: Amazon's seller guide says it prefers images larger than 1,000 pixels on each side to allow for zoom, and Shopify takes images up to 5000 x 5000 px or 25 megapixels. On 8frame, Nano Banana Pro offers 1K, 2K and 4K (21, 21 and 42 credits), so 2K costs no more than 1K. For print you can also enlarge a finished image 2x or 4x with BRIA Increase Resolution for 6 credits, up to 8192 x 8192.
Does Nano Banana Pro get label text right?
Check the label in every output, letter by letter. We have not measured how often it spells label text correctly, so when the words must be exact, composite the real label in the edit.
Can Nano Banana Pro match brand-specific colors accurately?
We have not measured it. Treat a named brand colour, Pantone or hex code as approximate, compare the output with your swatch, and correct it in the grade.
How do I keep the same product consistent across multiple shots?
Lock the product description, the surface and the light, and change only the composition between shots. For the exact object, add your real product photo as a reference image; the Nano Banana node accepts up to 10.
Can I use Nano Banana Pro through the 8frame MCP connector?
No. The connector's Nano Banana tool runs Nano Banana Classic at 6 credits and has no model setting, so Nano Banana Pro, its 1K/2K/4K choice and the 21-credit price apply on the canvas only.
