The process

When creating visual content with AI, you might think that a well-crafted prompt is enough to generate a stunning image. While this can often yield great results, especially for visuals reminiscent of traditional stock photography, AI alone is not sufficient for a faithful and accurate representation of your business, services, products, or people. And this is unlikely to change in the near future.

AI, Photography and Photoshop

For an authentic and compelling visual presentation, real photography remains indispensable. It requires a keen eye for composition and a deep understanding of how images effectively communicate with the viewer’s brain. By intelligently combining AI with photography and Photoshop, you unlock a unique opportunity to create powerful and realistic visuals.

The process for achieving the best results is as follows:

Create an AI-generated image that perfectly matches your vision and story. Ensure the image captures the desired atmosphere and composition.

Photograph your product from the same angle, with similar lighting and an appropriate focal length.

Merge the elements in Photoshop. Place the photographed product into the AI image and add shadows and lighting to ensure a seamless integration.

This approach results in visuals that are both visually striking and authentic. It strikes the perfect balance between innovation and craftsmanship, allowing your content to stand out and connect effortlessly with your audience.
