Preparing for an AI photo shoot: the choices that make the difference
An AI photo shoot is prepared like a little artistic direction. The subject is not enough: the place of the decor, the register of the clothing and the destination of the images determine the coherence of the result.
Write a simple work brief
Describe the project in ordinary words: a presentation portrait, a fashion series or a travel universe. Add the desired tone, for example soft, graphic or theatrical. This brief is used to compare the collections offered; it does not require you to write the internal generation texts yourself.
Provide several functions in the series
Not all images need to serve the same role. Plan an opening that sets the mood, portraits that bring the subject closer and a few context shots. When selecting results, look for this complementarity rather than a succession of almost identical photos.
Organize the final selection
Examine the images first for readability, then for details. Check hands, clothing edges and decor lines. A dramatic image may be less useful than a simpler composition if the face or main object is unclear.
Putting this idea into practice
For an elegant city series, choose an architectural universe, a sober range of colors and an alternation of portraits and silhouettes. The decor accompanies the subject instead of becoming an accumulation of monuments.
Before choosing your images
- Choose a main intention.
- Maintain a common visual direction.
- Distribute portraits, medium shots and context views.
To prepare your series, also consult how the studio works and packages and their total amounts.
