Do you have a reference photo?
If you have a photo of a person or product you want to recreate or reimagine, start here. The tool will add instructions so your AI generator follows your reference.
Choose your camera
The camera defines the overall character of your image: color science, resolution, and sensor quality.
Choose your lens
The lens determines how much of the scene you capture and how beautifully the background blurs.
Set the light
Light is the most powerful creative variable. The same subject in different light tells a completely different story.
Frame your shot
Shot type controls intimacy and distance. Camera angle adds power dynamics and drama.
Control the exposure
Aperture controls depth of field. ISO controls grain and sensitivity. Motion style controls how movement appears.
Define the look
Color grade sets the emotional tone. Visual technique defines the overall aesthetic. Technical extras add resolution and special effects.
Heads up: if you select a Time of Day in Step 8, it already implies a color temperature. Combining both can reinforce the look, or create a contradiction. Either way is valid; just be intentional.
Define the scene
Describe what's in the photograph. Set the environment, time of day, weather, and mood.
Optimize the composition for a specific format. Adds dimensions and layout instructions to the prompt.
