How to Get Great Results

  1. Step 1

    Use concise photographic prompts

    One or two sentences with subject, lens/shot, and lighting keep outputs clean and fast.

  2. Step 2

    Lock framing with camera cues

    Add lens and shot type (85mm portrait, 50mm medium, 35mm environmental) and optional DOF for stability.

  3. Step 3

    Iterate in small steps

    Change one element per pass—palette, background, or a single material—then re‑run for predictable improvements.

  4. Step 4

    Promote for final polish

    After composition and mood are set, switch to Imagen 4/Ultra, Flux.Pro, or Juggernaut for maximum fidelity.
