# Add your logo and text with Brand Kit (https://docs.apparelai.app/photoshoots/brand-kit)

Use **Brand Kit** to add your logo to product photos you've made in ApparelAI, and to add text such as your brand name or a launch message. Save your brand's name and logo once, then place them on any of your photoshoot photos, drag them where you want them and save them into the image.

Brand Kit is on the **Photo Shoot Result** page, the editor where every finished photoshoot opens. You won't find it in **Settings** or the sidebar. These steps are for the web app. No credit cost is shown anywhere in Brand Kit.

## Create a brand [#create-a-brand]

A brand is a name and a logo that you save once and use again on other photos.

<Steps>
<Step>
### Start a new brand [#start-a-new-brand]

Under **Your brands**, click **New brand**. The **Create a brand** form opens.
</Step>

<Step>
### Name it [#name-it]

Enter a **Brand name**, for example "Studio Meera".
</Step>

<Step>
### Upload your logo [#upload-your-logo]

Click **Upload a logo** and choose a PNG, JPG or WebP file of up to 10 MB.
</Step>

<Step>
### Save the brand [#save-the-brand]

Click **Create brand**. It's available once the form is filled in. To close the form without saving, click the × in its corner.
</Step>
</Steps>

<Callout type="idea" title="Use a transparent PNG">
A logo saved as a PNG with a transparent background keeps your photo visible around the logo. A JPG can't be transparent, so its background shows as a box on your photo.
</Callout>

## Add your logo [#add-your-logo]

Click **Add logo** to put your brand's logo on the photo, then drag it into place. **Add logo** is available once you have a brand with a logo.



## Add text to your photo [#add-text-to-your-photo]

Click **Add text**. A text layer that says "Your text" appears on the photo, with a box and corner handles, and it's added to **Layers**. Change it under **Text settings**:

| Setting | What you can do |
| --- | --- |
| **Text** | Type your text. It can have more than one line |
| **Font** | Arial (the default), Georgia, Verdana, Trebuchet MS or Courier New |
| **Size** | 8 to 2400. The size is in pixels of the photo, so the default of 32 is small on a 2K photo |
| Bold and alignment | Make the text bold, and align it left, center or right |
| **Text color** | Click one of the 16 swatches, such as White, Black, Ivory, Gold, Burgundy or Navy, use the color picker, or type a hex code. White (#FFFFFF) is the default |
| **Opacity** | 0 to 100%. Lower it to let the photo show through |
| **Width (px)** and **Height (px)** | The size of the text box, up to the size of the photo |
| **Center on photo** | Moves the layer to the middle of the photo |

To move the text, drag the highlighted box on the photo. To resize it, drag a corner handle.

## Place and arrange your layers [#place-and-arrange-your-layers]

- **Move:** drag a logo or text on the photo. To put it in the middle, click **Center on photo**. There are no preset corner positions.
- **Resize:** drag the corner handles, or type a **Width (px)** and **Height (px)**.
- **Stack:** select a layer in **Layers** and use the up and down arrows to bring it forward or send it backward.
- **Delete:** select a layer and click the trash button under **Layers**. **Remove added layers** removes every layer you've added.
- **Undo and redo:** while you edit, use the undo and redo arrows at the top of Brand Kit.

You can add up to 20 layers to a photo. **Layers** shows how many you've used, for example 1/20.

## Save the image [#save-the-image]

Click **Save image** at the top. It's available once you've changed something. Saving merges your logo and text into the photo.

To leave without saving, click **Cancel**. If you have unsaved changes, Brand Kit asks "Discard your edits?". Click **Discard edits** to leave, or **Cancel** to keep editing.



## Tips for logo placement on marketplaces [#tips-for-logo-placement-on-marketplaces]

- Some marketplaces don't allow logos, text or watermarks on the main product image. Check your marketplace's image rules before you add a logo.
- Download the photo before you add your logo, so you also have a clean copy. See [Download and export](/library/download-and-export).
- Keep the logo and text off the garment, so they don't hide details buyers want to see.
- For a subtle watermark, use white text and lower its **Opacity**.

## Frequently asked questions [#frequently-asked-questions]

<Accordions>
<Accordion title="How do I add my logo to product photos?">
Open the photo on the **Photo Shoot Result** page and click **Brand Kit**. Create a brand with your **Brand name** and logo, click **Add logo**, drag the logo into place and click **Save image**. The brand is saved, so you can add the same logo to other photos.
</Accordion>
<Accordion title="Can I add text to a product photo?">
Yes. In **Brand Kit**, click **Add text**, type your text and set the **Font**, **Size**, **Text color** and **Opacity** under **Text settings**. Drag the text into place, then click **Save image**.
</Accordion>
<Accordion title="What logo file should I upload?">
Upload a PNG, JPG or WebP file of up to 10 MB. A PNG with a transparent background works best: a JPG can't be transparent, so its background shows as a box on your photo.
</Accordion>
<Accordion title="How many credits does Brand Kit use?">
No credit cost is shown anywhere in **Brand Kit**. For what does use credits, see [How credits work](/getting-started/credits).
</Accordion>
<Accordion title="Can I add a watermark to my photos?">
Yes. Add your brand name with **Add text**, make it white and lower its **Opacity** so the photo shows through. Some marketplaces don't allow logos, text or watermarks on the main product image, so check their rules first, and download a clean copy before you add one.
