Taste Test
Tried ChatGPT Images 2.5 for beauty portrait work, and honestly, the results surprised me.
Two different moods, one tool: golden hour intimacy vs. soft morning glow. Both generated with careful creative direction: Lighting intent, skin texture, mood, composition angle. The AI doesn’t replace the eye behind the work, it responds to it.
Still figuring out where this fits in the pipeline, but as a previsualization tool for beauty campaigns? It’s getting genuinely useful.
What’s your workflow for AI-generated references?
