Product Images Built for Facebook & Instagram Ad Placements
Meta's ad system spans feed, story, reel, and Marketplace placements, each with its own aspect ratio and text-safe zone. Fluxx.work generates creative natively for each placement from your product photo, so nothing gets cropped or covered by the platform's own UI overlays.

Meta's placement formats, and why one image doesn't fit all of them
A 1:1 feed post, a 4:5 feed post, and a 9:16 story/reel each crop a source image differently — a composition centered for square feed will have its edges cut off in a vertical story placement, often removing the product entirely. Fluxx.work generates each format natively rather than cropping one master image after the fact.
Designing around the safe zone
Story and reel placements overlay UI elements (profile icon, caption, CTA button) in fixed screen regions. Text or logos placed outside the safe zone get covered. Fluxx.work composes story/reel creative with the product and any generated text kept inside Meta's published safe-zone margins.
Benefits
Native aspect ratios per Meta placement — no post-crop losses
Story/reel creative composed inside Meta's safe zone
Coordinated creative sets across feed, story, and reel from one photo

“We used to book a studio every quarter. Now one product photo gives us the hero, lifestyle and detail shots in a single pass, and the catalogue finally looks like one brand instead of six separate shoots.”

“The garment is genuinely the same in every frame — colour, print and trims all hold. That was the part I did not believe until we ran our own SKUs through it.”

“Glass and reflections are where most tools fall apart. Ours come out clean, so we can photograph a new scent the week it launches instead of waiting on a studio slot.”

“Metal finish and stone detail survive a zoom now, which is what our listings actually needed. We stopped reshooting pieces that came back soft.”

“The textures and lighting are so realistic that customers tell us they can almost feel the product. We reshoot far less than we used to.”
