Candles and home fragrance
Bathtub tray
- Single shot
- Product only
- Portrait 4:5
The bath tray places a candle within a bathroom routine while keeping the product easy to see. It works well for spa gifts, bath collections and ceramic candles intended to complement a calm home interior. Folded towels provide context, while the empty tub keeps the composition simple enough for a product page. Give ChatGPT a reference showing the vessel and lid together, and request an unlit wick for this arrangement. Specify the tray material if you want the image to match your existing shop photography.
Describe your candle in a few words. Still attach your product photo in ChatGPT.
Create one photorealistic professional product campaign photograph. Use supplied product reference image(s), if available. Use the supplied product as the source of truth for its design, color, shape, material, texture, finish, packaging and any existing visible branding. Sector: Candles and Home Fragrance. Hero product: the product shown in the attached product reference(s). Setting: Calm bathroom with stone tub. Arrangement: Candle on a wooden bath tray with a towel. Camera: Slightly high oblique. Framing: Product in set. Lighting: Soft diffused light. Product priority: Show the vessel, label and wax; when lit, keep the flame natural and the label readable. Keep lit candles safely away from fabric and hands; no invented scent notes or claims. Brand/art direction: Refined, realistic commercial photography. Supporting styling: Minimal props that complement the supplied product. Composition/aspect ratio: Portrait 4:5. Keep the hero product clearly readable with realistic scale, contact shadows and reflections. Never obscure or replace the hero product. Render the stated location and lighting coherently. Preserve natural material texture. No people, invented branding, extra products, captions, watermarks or excessive retouching.
Attach your product photo before you paste the prompt. A plain background and even light give the most accurate result.
How to use this prompt
- Photograph your candle. Use a plain background and soft, even light. A phone photo is fine if it's sharp.
- Open ChatGPT and attach the photo. Use a model that can create images.
- Paste the prompt and send it. You get one finished photo.
- Fix details in the same chat. If something changed, reply with what to keep, for example: “Keep the label exactly as in my photo.”

Questions about this kit
- What does the Bathtub tray prompt create?
- It creates one finished portrait photo (4:5) of your own candle, in this scene: calm bathroom with stone tub. The 4:5 shape fits Instagram feed posts and most product pages.
- Are there people in the photos?
- No. This is a product-only photo, which suits listings, catalogues and ads where the candle should be the only subject.
- Will ChatGPT keep my candle exactly as it is?
- The prompt tells ChatGPT to treat your photo as the source of truth and to protect the vessel, wax colour, wick, lid and label. If a detail still changes, reply in the same chat: “Keep the vessel exactly as in my photo.”
