Tips for Better AI Images
- Be descriptive — "A modern minimalist office with natural light, wooden desk, laptop, and a cup of coffee, professional photography style" beats "an office"
- Specify the style — "watercolor," "photorealistic," "flat illustration," "3D render"
- Include composition details — "close-up," "wide angle," "bird's eye view," "centered"
- Mention lighting — "golden hour," "soft studio lighting," "dramatic shadows"
When to Use AI Images
AI images are great for blog post headers, social media visuals, concept mockups, and presentations. For professional branding, product photography, or images of real people, professional photography is still recommended. Check our Brand Moodboard prompt to define your visual style before generating images.
