Product photography meets AI art direction

This project demonstrates my workflow for creating ecommerce-ready product imagery: iPhone photography combined with ChatGPT for art direction, shot lists, and background generation.
Some of the work here is real product photography I shot and styled myself. Some is fully AI-generated concept work. I'm transparent about which is which, because the workflow is the point: both paths produce commercial-grade assets, and most client projects use a blend of the two.

The Workflow

I photograph real products on iPhone, then use ChatGPT to art direct the final images: generating styled backgrounds, building shot lists for different platforms, and compositing products into lifestyle settings. The result is a full suite of ecommerce assets (packshots, hero images, social content, campaign imagery) without a traditional studio setup.
For concept work, I use ChatGPT to generate entire scenes from scratch, exploring brand directions, packaging concepts, and campaign visuals before a product even exists. This is useful for pitching, mood boarding, and pre-launch content.

What's real, what's concept

Photographed by me (real products): Beauty and skincare, wellness and natural health, artisan food and beverage, home fragrance and candles, botanical and lifestyle products. These are iPhone shots I styled and art directed with AI-generated backgrounds and settings.
AI-generated concept work: The oracle/tarot card decks and luxury tea packaging are entirely AI-generated. They're included as examples of what the concept development workflow can produce for brands exploring new product lines or visual directions.

What a client gets

Clean packshots and hero images for ecommerce listings
Lifestyle and campaign imagery for social media and advertising
Product launch visuals and pre-launch concept development
AI-generated mood boards and brand direction explorations
